Do you have your curriculum in a shareable format, or even just an outline? I'm going to start teaching programming to high schoolers soon and would love to see that.

TEALS volunteer here (https://www.tealsk12.org). TEALS offers its Intro to CS curricula as open textbooks:
Sem 1: https://teals-introcs.gitbooks.io/introduction-to-computer-s...
Sem 2: https://www.gitbook.com/book/teals-introcs/2nd-semester-intr...
I taught this last year and had a blast. It's still a very new curriculum, so expect to have to work out some flow issues and maybe even a bug or two. In particular, doing Snap! for a whole semester I think works if you're only teaching one semester, but we wanted well more time on Python than we had.
