I read up on Islam and it's history all by myself. (For self protection I should point out I actually studied it about 7 or 8 years ago and could misremember parts). I've always been interested in religion as a historical driver.

In Texas my son completed their study of Islam as a regular scheduled part of social studies about a month ago. It was pretty superficial and included the supposed symbolism of various dress motifs and the like. I didn't see it as particularly useful in the present climate but it was not offensive either.
