[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We're looking at BASIS for DC2 but I've pretty much lost faith at this point, feeling fed up with affirmative action/lottery admissions and aggressively PC parents. I just want a public school where a great education also tends to mean first-rate facilities and admission to a top college. How could Basis possibly afford to wash out half the 7th and 8th graders? Who would replace them if they did? Nobody can tell us. [/quote] This makes no sense. You have just 'lost faith' 'at this point'? That implies you had faith at one time, but nothing has changed - it was always open admission, always limited facilities, and always had the likelihood of washing out many many 7th and 8th graders. And as for "nobody can tell us"...what? Read the charter! They don't need to scrap their entire mission to get a few more bucks from DCPS these first two years. [/quote]
