Hi Tim,

Kudos to you for wanting to learn another language. Chinese is a great choice!

Every board of education office in the United States has criteria for accepting credit(s) for non-traditional learning (meaning not within the school system). If I were you I would download the entire curriculum guide and make an appointment with the school districts curriculum supervisor to see if it matches and meets district criteria. Some districts are stricter than others as to what they accept as credit for high school.

Good luck-
