Does Sidwell teach multivariable calculus?

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.

is this Gonzaga? My son took both senior yr.

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.

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

Not this year.

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

Ignorant comment.

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

Magnet programs cover students from many home schools.

Do elaborate

Novel idea: ask the school/admissions team instead of posting here

I read this as silly clam and got offended for a second.

Not in DMV, but here in California it is usually linear or multivariate. Some schools will also offer a senior symposium and statistics.

DP but partial differentiation is, in my opinion, easier than implicit differentiation. Multiple integration is not very conceptually difficult at all for someone who understands integration. Maybe they were taking about stuff like that. But vector calculus (often a part of calc 3/multi) is certainly more abstract and difficult and would be a very bad idea to attempt to learn at the same time as basic calculus.
