[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow. Only 13 kids stayed for 5th grade at Brent. Anyone pretending the current 4th/5th grade combo has not been a failure is crazy. What is that principal thinking?[/quote]

a huge number of the rising 5th graders got into BASIS.  [/quote]

21, to be precise. Wow.

Yu Ying sent 10 to BASIS. All other schools n<10.[/quote]

Also, Brent is in a renovation so kids are being bussed pretty far away (maybe Columbia Heights?) for a couple of years. That may have led to an even bigger number of kids who jumped ship.[/quote]

They lost a significant number of kids at every grade level, which is different from previous years. Their overall enrollment is down this year, certainly in large part to the renovation. [/quote]

I am sure this is all correct. But a total of only 13 kids returning to BASIS 5th grade is insane. Remember that the original rationale was that they had too many 5th graders for 1 class, but not enough for 2. Well they've sure fixed that problem![/quote]
