Default What Classes are You Taking?

So, just curious in regards to everyone's schooling (be it high school, college or whatever). What courses are you taking at the moment? Any Honors or AP courses?

Personally, I go to a college-prep charter school. I'm an independant study student, so some courses I take are through packet work at home, and some are in labs at the school. We also have an agreement with the local community college (campus right next door) in that we take our science and language courses through them, as well as some electives.

As I mentioned, my school's a college-prep school. We have two "tracks", and three different credit plans you can be on. I'm going for 260 high school credits (I'm a junior, now), and am currently on the "college-prep" plan (which is our equivilant of an Honors program). My school doesn't offer actual Honors or AP courses. Simply standard courses, or college-prep.

At the moment, I'm working on English 10 and Geometry 1. Because we're independant study, you're able to work on one lab course and one packet course at one time. In my case, I get them done in less than half the time it would take to take it in a full-time, 5-day a week high school.

When I'm done with this English class - I plan on taking a History of Naval Warfare. My teacher (and now, CAP Unit Commander) created the class for fun, and it's now part of the elective cirriculm at my school.

What's your schedule like?

-PC

P.S. In keeping up with the CPP, do not post any school locations or names.
