[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not a good idea to learn college materials taught by high school teachers. Not to say they aren’t qualified, you just don’t get the breath and depth from a college professor who are at the forefront of the field. I’d rather let DC learn the materials at college.[/quote]

Most students even in the STEM magnet are going to a college where they will be taught by a professor at the forefront of the field. Mostly, they will be taught by someone who has focused on teaching rather than research. The first couple years, they may have adjuncts. That’s just how university undergrad courses  work these days.

Also, AP-level classes are fairly basic. My children and I both have had many great AP teachers. I even had one who taught the exact same subject at one of the US military academies. He wanted to teach HS after retiring from the military because he felt they had more of an impact.  Both my kids had several math teachers who had also taught at Universities as well. It's really not uncommon at a certain level.[/quote]
