We are laughing at you, bozo.

You are creating a very bizarre image of BIM supporters. Patents do consider what other parents at a school are like.

All the top schools got f’d up parents

I have nothing positive or negative to say about the school. But I did notice a couple pages ago from the post history that this thread was finally dead for about a week, and then someone came on here to make a joke about the school which apparently revived the middle-school level shouting match.

Isn’t BASIS DC ranked the best private school in VA?

I mean BIM.

What’s “BIM”?

BASIS Independent McLean.

They look pretty good on this site:

Lame attempt to pump the thread and go back to the one site that says BIM is great despite the accumulated evidence in the last 13 pages here that fills out the picture more.

Is that all BIM can do, resort to cheap trolling now?

No affiliation with BIM.

Seems to me that the Niche rating (which is based on actual data) is more reliable than a few anonymous individuals repeatedly hate-posting on DCUM.

Get a life.

Agree

Sounds like the BASIS parent culture is to attack and mock anyone who isn't a cheerleader. That doesn't sound very nice to be around for years on end.

Go ahead and attack me for that too.

That post said” we have made it clear we don’t want you here“ - you don’t that’s an attack?
I asked who were the “we” and you think I was attacking her?
Are you blind or just same bad?

So impressive that it is rated 3.5 stars out of 5 by parents.

I was really worried about this school after reading all these high drama negative posts. But after this first trimester, I am really quite happy. School is small but my kid likes it. The friend group is good with many new students just like my kid. Teaching is good. Not much to complain about.

Glad to hear that your kid like it.
Close to one third of the 9th graders are new to the school.
