I attended the Digipen program at New Market many years ago(04-05). Looking back I can say that I was extremely lucky to have had such a great opportunity and attending was one of the best choices I made in high school. At Digipen I was surrounded by other students passionate about programming and it allowed me to build advanced skills that very few high school students develop. It gave me a *huge* head start in college and in my software development career. I also made several life-long friends.

I see that Mr. Foster is still teaching. He's an excellent instructor!
