| Basis is top academics! Strong in all disciplines, not only math and science. Yes, limited electives, but of great quality. It is our second year there and we are very happy. |

| We just switched from public. This place is top notch. They communicate well, the academics are strong, kids are genuinely happy. I really wish this school all the best. I love the teachers. Just so passionate about their subjects and really care about the kids. |

Hope that continues as it has not been the case in the past. Admin was a nightmare and humanities have traditionally been very weak. Math and science are very strong. |

Just wait until the December-April timeframe when BASIS management will pull yet another idiotic stunt by proposing something utterly stupid or going back on the promises they made to start the year or the year before. It's an annual ritual, destined to bring new parents a cold dose of reality on how the school is actually managed. Like the NFL, every team looks great at the start of the season! |

| Maybe they will revisit renting out half of the school to a business again to make money. |

Just wait and you will see. The place is broken. Always starts ok then goes downhill. |

| Is Basis full or do they still have space? |

Basis always has space, but for upper grades your first day of school has to be before some date in early October. Get on it now. |

They always have space for a reason. They are still not at half of where they need to be financially after 6 years. |
