This seems like an 11th grade course schedule rather than a 10th grade one.

This is what 10th grade at St. Anselm's Abbey looks like, except for the math.

Yes, had already taken geometry (the usual 10th grade math) before starting at the Abbey (the AP BC track does precalc in one semester). Forgot they also have PE/intramurals.

Standard math track at most schools is geometry in 9th.

What is the history progression? Global in 9th? What do they take in 11th?

Required progression is AP World in 9th, APUSH in 10th, then 11th and 12 are electives, various choices (AP and others) depending on what is being offered each of the 4 remaining semesters.

It’s school specific what H or APs are even offered for 10th. We had to sign a parental waiver for our child to take this courseload:
AP World History
H Algebra 2
H English 10
H Chem
H Spanish 4
Health/public speaking electives

My DC will be taking next year:
English 10
Honors Chem

Spanish 3
AP World History
Some kind of fun elective, probably CS related

*Took two sports for PE credits this year.
*Other electives included ceramics, theater, and instrumental music.
*Small private school in DC that doesn’t have honors tracking (some AP classes offered in 11th and 12th).

the only ones available in 10th are World History which would be a huge lift with DC’s LD and pull time and effort away from their favorite STEM classes

This is a good decision. My rising 10th grader with LDs did a non-math-or-science AP in 9th, and while his grade is ok (not affirmatively good), it has consumed his time and been an enormous source of frustration. Would not repeat.

PP you’re responding to — thank you! I’m sorry your son was frustrated by the experience but I appreciate your reassurance.
