Maybe soon, philosophy won't be considered a "difficult/advanced topic". I'm beginning to see more philosophy-oriented classes in high school, which is awesome. I am currently taking Theory of Knowledge, an International Baccalaureate class, as a high school senior. The IB heads hate calling it a philosophy class but it aims to "provide an opportunity for students to reflect on the nature of knowledge, and on how we know what we claim to know" (so, philosophy-oriented). It is compulsory for an IB diploma. This has certainly increased interest in philosophy in IB students and it becomes a favorite class for most students and even IB coordinators. Creating early interest in topics will definitely encourage later interest.
