I sent two of my kids to community college at 13. The only immaturity problem was that one of the two was a slacker about getting assignments done, but older people at the school also had that issue often enough. The other kid now has a 4.0 GPA on 48 credits, and you'd have never guessed she wasn't an adult.

Congrats? I’m speaking from my own experience in a school that had 25%+ high school children in it (effectively 50% because many adult students were part time). It was high school 2.0.

Your own experience of your children going to school doesn’t reflect the experience of what others had to deal with at that school or in relation to your children... grades be damned.

It really is high school 2.0, as you can tell by the classes offered. There are classes that are below what is traditional for high school, but college credit is given. You can get college credit for the very first introductory algebra class. That's honors 7th grade, or regular 9th grade. About the same applies for English composition and science.

It's not just older people who wish to avoid being in classes with immature young people. The mature young people are also trying to get away from the awfulness.
