I took my first CNA course at the adult school at night while I was still in high school. I think this is a great idea. I have also heard of high schools that offer LPN programs and think either one or preferably both, are great additions to any high school. I was seeking work at 15 and having a CNA course during the day in my high school would have been beneficial to me. More high schools should follow this path in providing something useful for their students.
