[quote=Anonymous]Right, but BASIS weeds out middle school kids subtly but systematically between 6th and 9th grades. Roughly one-third of any given 5th grade cohort remains for 9th grade. Essentially, the only type of achievement that's celebrated at BASIS is academic (vs. sporting, musical, artistic, theatrical, bilingual/linguistic, creative talents and accomplishments). If you wind up with an alternative for middle school, think twice.[/quote]
