It isn't often that they get to calculus 2.you'd have to start algebra 1 in 7th grade, then do geometry, algebra 2, trigonometry, calculus 1, then calculus 2. The vast majority of students will do pre-algebra in 7th, so they wouldn't even have the option of reaching integral calculus. We currently have one student who is enrolled who is taking calculus 2. Vector algebra.. not so much

@Bold Is that one of those gifted high school student's taking college courses on reccomendation or admitted by an AP credit ? 

Huh, I thought that high schools would at least cover some complex number arithmetic, matrix/vector/row operations, linear independence/dependence and some intersection of primitives but I don't expect them to know linear transformations, vector spaces, determinants, linear spans, basis, eigenvalues/vectors, or other arbitrary concepts such as proofs ... 

 

Maybe some high schools, I guess. Vector algebra would typically be covered at the very end of algebra 2 or the very beginnings of trig, but waaaay more basic than the concepts that you just mentioned lol. Basic matrices and that's probably about it. Maybe forces, but then you're getting into physics. That stuff you mentioned is generally taken after calculus.
