Nice. I would even suggest learning HTML/CSS, followed by Javascript as a first true programming language. Many a CS professor may disagree, and for the true hardcore CS students, JS will only take you so far. But for the average high school student who has no desire or need to understand the complexities of compilation, GUI libraries, memory allocation, etc., Javascript is a great way to learn programming quickly and visually without the "voodoo" involved in getting a C script to run.
Not to mention, limited experience with HTML/CSS/JS is probably far better on the resume/useful in the job market than limited experience in C/Java/Python.
