[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]einstein parent here, and I agree that the lack of science AP's is the weak spot. Math is great, however! We love the AP Calc teacher who is also head of the department.

it's true there is no MV calc or higher--but there aren't close to enough kids to fill a class. 30 kids have taken the BC exam in the past three years combined, and of those, only 5 students got a 4 or 5. Just one five. In three years.

It's trending upwards, and that's good. But it's wise to ensure the existing options are serving students before considering options that would serve only a tiny minority--and I say that as the parent of one of that tiny minority.

Class offerings notwithstanding, we really like the community at Einstein. For my student, the low-key vibe and supportive, relatively low-drama, chill social environment has been as instrumental to their success as this or that course offering. That might just be us, but I'm really glad my kid is there. [/quote]

If kids aren’t getting high marks, maybe the teacher is the issue.  [/quote]
