I'll be teaching precalc to DS13 over the summer to compensate for the class he's taking now. His teacher returned after being out for 6 weeks on Monday and was out again on Tuesday. Don't think I lack sympathy for his teacher; I'm frustrated with the subs. As I reported on another thread, they're nothing but babysitters. No teaching occurs when the regular teacher isn't there.

He is forbidden from taking calculus at the high school next year (I told him he can take AP Statistics instead). He's not happy about this idea, but I told him it's too bad. He can take it at the community college in 2015.
