I currently use Alice 2 for my introduction to computer science class.  We run Alice 2 on iMac's that currently have MacOS High Sierra.  Will Alice 2 be compatible with MacOS Mojave which releases on September 24th.  I want to make sure everything will be ok before updating all the computers.<br class="">
