The College Board's Advanced Placement course in introductory Java-based computer science, covering core programming concepts such as objects, control flow, arrays, and algorithms, and ending in the AP exam. Commenters point to free outside practice materials alongside it.
Commenters note it is designed to be taught from nothing and that students with no prior experience still did well, and they suggest it as a credit-earning path for high schoolers.
