That sounds incredible tedious, but probably a lot of fun too. The best my high school had was Apple IIe's, BASIC, and a couple Mac LC's. I wish I'd had a more experienced mentor in those days. It took me a much longer time to cobble together basic comp-sci knowledge fiddling around on my own.
I ended up getting access to XENIX, too. It was thru a public access system but it was a long distance phone call. That put a damper on too much experimentation. They also didn't have a C compiler (or, if they did, I couldn't figure out how to use it).

Job related stuff is intermixed with traditional highschool content. However that does not prevent applying to the university later on, many people go through this route in European countries where it is available, just in case.
