[quote=Anonymous]The math/humanities thing between BASIS and Latin is true, although I'd said it's BASIS = math and science and Latin is not. Students at BASIS start taking 3 separate science classes every year in 6th (Bio/Chem/Physics, each about 3x a week). The default is for most students to begin Alg in 5th or 6th, but some do start with Math 5 or 6. Latin doesn't have the same sort of science curriculum. Some students can follow a faster math path if they need it or want it, often by doing a course over the summer. Anyway, BASIS isn't for everyone. I had one kid who has thrived there, and another who flamed out after 8th. [/quote]
