"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

A lot depends on the school district one is in.  My child's school district does a pretty good job of providing opportunities for advanced/accelerated students.  Of course, it isn't a sub-par urban school district, either.

AP classes are usually the first item on the chopping block, whatever the relative quality of the District, rural or urban.  When I was in High School, advanced classes were dumped while the District built a new football field.  I ended up twiddling my fingers the entire Senior year.

That's a shame.  My child has been the beneficiary of quite a few AP courses at school, and is in senior year.

I got in one of two offered--in a private school, and ended up with credit for a year of College English.
 There were no AP classes offered in the public schools.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Back in the day, I basically tested out of first year of college - all the freshman core courses - with AP credits from high school.  Thankfully, my public high school was, at the time, a damned good district (it has since then fallen on hard times).

What are these AP classes you speak of?  Nothing like that when I was in school.  I was lucky to get a year of linear algebra my senior year.  No calculus.  Also got some Chemistry II until I got kicked out of for endangering the school.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.
