Plenty of non-white kids at Basis.

In comparison to the rest of the city including charter schools? WTF are you talking about? 46.4% White, 25.8% Black, 7.2% Asian or Asian/Pacific Islander, 9.9% Hispanic/Latino, 0.2% American Indian or Alaska Native, and 0% Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander.

poster was just pointing out that an 8th grader leaving Basis for another HS is not necessarily white. which is absolutely true.

I know at least a few years ago they made lots of kids repeat classes no matter what they had in middle school. I can imagine that is frustrating for a basis student who thinks they should be in AP calculus in 9th grade but are made to start at Algebra I again.

Why would they?

Huge difference in facilities and access to more traditional high school experience.

WTF are you talking about? That means the *majority* of BASIS kids aren’t white. So there are obviously a *ton* of BASIS kids who could go to Banneker and still not be white. 25% Black may vastly underepresent the city, but it still means that 1 out of 4 kids at BASIS is Black, which (1) is hardly a negligible percentage and (2) means it’s not that weird for those 1/4 of all BASIS students to be thinking of Banneker.

And choosing not to go to Banneker.

Hey WTF/WTF! Basis is FAAAAAR whiter than it should be in terms of DC Demographics: check out what is "normal" for DC

Category SY 22-23
% Student Population Black 56%
% Student Population Hispanic 22%
% Student Population Asian 2%
% Student Population Two or More Races 3%
% Student Population Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander < 1%
% Student Population American Indian/Alaska Native < 1%
% Student Population White 17%

See the skew, boo?

This just proves that Black families are better because they know a hellscape office building isn’t an appropriate place to send kids for MS and HS.

DP. Why “should” a school have the same demographics as the entire city? And if it’s SO critical, why aren’t you bashing the Ward 3 schools?

These demographics arguments are so tired.

Too many for high station blacks to be honest. They look down on me too.
