Dear PP,

Newsflash! All kids can leave high school early to complete internships, work or volunteer service provided that they have completed most of their high school credits. Most kids will get lots of financial aid if the kid applies to lots of scholarships with excellent grades or the parents pay a small fee for private college admissions officer. BASIS truly isn’t an anomaly. BASIS isn’t offering anything special in that front. OP mentioned her child is into extracurriculars, does BASIS compete in the athletic divisions where scouts can come visit her child?

What are BASIS middle schools offering that the OP cannot get at a suburban middle school magnet or DC charter middle school? The advantage the suburbs and DC Publics have over BASIS is an agreement that some college level courses from community colleges in MD/VA can be transferred to state schools. Does BASIS have such advantage? In the case of MD/VA, the entire state is working together for a path of college affordability for middle class students and it’s less likely to change whereas BASIS is a single entity.

OP, really needs to think this through. I would hard pass on BASIS but do a shadow day anyway to get rid of all doubts. [/quote]
