Does Sidwell teach multivariable calculus?

University of Maryland also teaches linear algebra before multivariate calculus. It's a better approach.

Public schools do. Free of charge.

I don’t see it in their course of study.

Will your kid already have taken Linear Algebra? If not, that is the better foundation before Multivariable Calculus.

DP. My kid's school offers both, each for a semester.

Perhaps.

Sidwell admin probably doesn't want kids forsaking other subjects to do that much extreme more math, at the level of depth that Sidwell teaches.

Gonzaga also offers multivariable CALC and Linear Algebra. My son loved this experience at Gonzaga.

Our local high school doesn't offer either.

Most don't offer both - there aren't enough advanced kids to offer this level of math. Facts.

It's a joint class with Landon (all taught at Holton).

No, not a Catholic school

Our school (St Andrew's) alternates each year between teaching linear algebra and multivariable calculus. Maybe Sidwell does the same and that's why you don't see it?

Multivariable calculus is not that freaking hard. You could teach it at the same time as regular calculus if you wanted to.

Not this year.

Why? Do students take both? Or get pushed into one based on even/odd grad year?
