A cluster of courses offered at Chippewa Falls Senior High School is helping prepare students for real-world scenarios in multiple scientific fields.
Project Lead the Way is a group of four courses offered to students at Chi-Hi aimed at applying math, science and technology to courses to help prepare students for on-the-job problems. There are four courses offered including principles of engineering, introduction to engineering and design, computer science essentials and civil engineering and architecture.
College credit is also offered in some cases if the student earns a high enough score on the end of the year test, similar to an Advanced Placement class and test.
