[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bring transparent about bone-headed curricular choices that wouldn’t have been out of place 50 years ago doesn’t make BASIS a great school. Their science instruction is first rate from the get-go. That’s about it. We weren’t even blown away by the math teaching. The miserable building only tells half the story.[/quote]

Everyone is entitled to their opinion.  I have found the math, chem, physics, bio, econ, and art instruction to be excellent (light years ahead of my instruction back in the day).  English has been solid, with a a little too much emphasis on grammar and not enough on writing, for my taste.  Spanish seems fine.  (world) History seems a bit scattered - but it is such a voluminous topic to cover (especially without a textbook tying it all together!).  As is proven time and time again by these threads, BASIS is very polarizing.  IF it works for your kid - you will really appreciate the school.  If it doesn't, apparently you will hate it with the power of a thousand blazing suns.[/quote]
