Even more so, I made a discovery recently that was rather interesting:
we apparently have agreements with certain local colleges that will
remain unnamed to teach a certain curriculum for office productivity
(i.e. MS-Office). The idea being that the kids are doing in high school
what they would be doing in college, thereby giving them the opportunity
to get college credit while in high school AND prep them for the MOUS
(Microsoft Office User Specialist, I think) certification exam. So, it's
not just a matter of $$$ for us, there are external relationships and
curriculum on the table.

Yep, it is called articulation agreements.  Usually marketing tool between
HS and University/College.
