[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basis seems like an imperfect school that works for a critical mass of DC families. [b]The real controversy is that most in-bound middle schools are not a viable option for (or otherwise inaccessible) to UMC families.[/b] Seems like we need more schools of the Latin/Basis mold, not less. But the powers that be don’t want to see UMC families concentrating at a small slither of schools. [/quote] This. Especially in middle school. Seems like many DCPS elementary schools are willing to differentiate, and that options open up in high school with the application schools. But too many DCPS middle schools totally neglect advanced learners and fail to appropriately challenge them. If anything is to come of these endless BASIS threads, maybe it's a recognition of that lack that could lead to awareness in the real world. [/quote]
