Sure. My high school's aviation course starts freshman year with an aviation history class and some time on the sims.
In sophomore year, we started learning the instruments, a lot of the physics involved in flight, FAA regulations, tests on the sims, different airspaces, weather and temperature effects on flight, first couple flight hours for our private, etc...
In junior year, you pick either the pilot course or the aircraft mechanic course. The one you pick continues on into senior year. They are double block (takes two class periods of the day) classes for junior and senior year.
I'm currently going into the pilot course of my Junior year.
