[quote=Anonymous]I am a parent of a Latin student in the lower school. I feel that Latin does offer academic rigor and sets high expectations. The biggest difference I see (with the caveat that I have never visited a Basis school or had a child enrolled in one of the schools) is that Latin does not teach to any sort of standardized test. Personally, I really like that. I feel that the administration and staff really focus on educating their students. My child has a great rapport with most of her teachers. Lots of homework, Algebra starting in 7th grade, thought provoking questions to prepare for socratic seminars, etc. Latin has a lot to offer. I encourage you to check out the open house. Latin does offer AP exams and does do some differentiation. http://www.edline.net/pages/Washington_Latin_PCS/Our_Program/Academics/Curriculum [/quote]
