Amazing that high schoolers are casually learning CAD and JavaScript!

  My CAD class was awesome, run by an engineering dude in his 40s who's sole interest was spending as much district funding as possible. By the time I graduated, he had surrounded himself with a room of 20x Quadro/i7 machines and a half-dozen 3D printers. It makes me happy to imagine how much joy that brings him and his current students these days. Unfortunately the computer science class is no longer running at the school I attended. Between the low demand for the class and the difficulty of teaching programming on an iPad, they decided to pull the plug and focus on providing other STEM classes. Truly a tragedy since I look back on that class so fondly, but I guess the next generation of software developers will need to be a bit more self-motivated.

  I learned both in the late 90s. AutoCAD and think JavaScript, might have only been CSS. They were elective courses but still.
