[quote=Anonymous]+100. Being cooped up is a real issue for many BASIS MS students, particularly boys. It's not the fault of the current BASIS admins that the awful building was selected more than a decade back, or that BASIS HQ in Arizona doesn't permit double periods/excursions outside the building, but these problems are real. 11 and 12 year-olds spend far too much time sitting in darkened classrooms watching Power Point presentations of museum exhibits that are a short walk from the school, including slides of paintings at the American Art Museum and Portrait Gallery, a block away. A sense of wonder is largely absent in a BASIS education. You're not a troll if you mind and object.[/quote]
