Hello everyone and happy new year. I am really confused. I am doing my first csc class in the spring semester which is "c++", but I am currently interesting in learning front end development. My question is there any way of learning both c++ and front end development? What should I do? Should I focus on one language or do both at the same time? I am interesting in learning JavaScript, but I also want to get a "A" in my first csc class. Thank you for your time.

C++ will certainly build an excellent foundation of knowledge as you take on HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and other front-end skills. Look at it as a first step!
That said, as you have time and manage the workload, no harm in dabbling in the other languages.
