[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Thanks but not helpful at all (can't even mention which states) and even more vague than the endless boosting (criticisms, too) about BASIS. [/quote] Sorry but I value my privacy.[/quote] You indicated that Basis was fully meeting his needs. I attended the open house last night and spoke to one of the English instructors. I was surprised at the level of English instruction especially in writing. The 6th grade teacher indicated that they were working on organizing paragraphs. I asked her about when they worked on 3 and 5 paragragh essays or big book projects and it was not on her radar. Currently, this was my main concern with Basis. In all fairness, only the privates in DC and MD seem to put an early emphais on teaching writing, even though MoCo does at least introduce the material and because they assign book projects you can control the level of the project. What is your experience with the writing?[/quote]
