to me it is a waste of time. they pretty much baby you through high school and tell you what to take and you'll be there from 0-6 period every year and it will suck. my boyfriend was in it and they give you medals and stuff when you graduate for "being a good kid". I thought it just made kids feel like they were smart. sorry i'm bitter about it still because he was all excited he got medals and I thought it was dumb. I did way harder things and didn't get anything for it. good for you though. they will take you on field trips sometimes........
