[quote=Anonymous]New poster looking at Basis for our 4th grader sharing 22:04's concerns about the peer group and college admission prospects after visiting the school on a school day. I don't doubt that some of the older kids will "wash out," but how many is anybody's guess because Basis surely can't afford to see the back of most of them. If Basis indeed knows just what it's doing, why are the hallways zoo-like (crazy and loud by any standard) and why do so many of the teachers look like bewildered teenagers? Seriously, I didn't talk to or see one who looked a day over 25. I definitely care about which groups send their kids. Asian students (at least those with Asian parents) punch far about their pro rata in advanced math classes in schools nationwide, and at our country's best universities. Hence, the fact that nobody much seems to care if there are any in DC public schools past elementary is itself cause for concern. [/quote]
