My high school had the shop teacher (who was actually a very sharp guy) teach programming. It was actually billed as programming, not CS. We learned C++ (maybe not the best choice, but this was ~1999), and he basically learned whatever he was teaching a few weeks ahead of us. Most of the students were highly motivated, so most learned a lot even if the teacher couldn't give us all the answers.
