Our DD12 will be going to the regional high school next year.
One of the options is a 'biomed' vocational offering using curriculum from PLTW a 503c group. Being an enormous skeptic with new fanged headyoumakayshun programs I thought I' would solicit feedback on this forum - DD12 is keen on this and I dearly want to be wrong and find out that it is a sterling program.
Not to sound arrogant but I wonder how rigorous the program will be and whether it is intended to churn out lab techs or future researchers and doctors. I know that lack of challenge is fatal to DD12's ability to hold focus.
There is an option for 'internships' in physician's practices but as she is whole grade skipped I am concerned that it may only apply to 18 year olds - she will end her senior year at 17 provided remains on her current track...
All answers appreciated :-)
