[quote=Anonymous]How can BASIS afford to wash out students? That question doesn't even make sense. It's like asking how can TJ afford to wash out 90%+ of all of its' potential students by never even accepting them. They do just fine, just as TJ does. They will keep getting full flights of incoming 5th graders, which will whittle down as the grades advance, that's really not so unusual for many schools, and I think it will be something relatively predictable and able to be planned for in terms of model and sustainability. They've done this kind of thing before, they know what they are doing. And as for Indian/Asian/whatever - speaking for myself, I could care less what "group" goes to what school. It's not a popularity contest or social club. What matters most is what matters to you and what works for your student and your family, and in our case, what matters to our student is a good, rigorous education, and so far it's working out great.[/quote]
