[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP, I have not heard any of the previous posts represented as "those who left and soured" - in fact, it's highly dubious that they ever were BASIS families given the large number of glaring mischaracterizations and inaccuracies posted here these last couple of days.  I wouldn't put any credence into any of those posts being from anyone who ever actually had anyone at BASIS - they weren't even prospective families shadowing given the grossly incorrect statements about time spent on DC-CAS.

If anything, it's just more of the same desperate campaign by the same folks to try and trash BASIS that we saw this time last year.  There are obviously some who feel deeply threatened by the prospect of charter school success.[/quote]

Since you brought it up, as an interested but not directly involved observer, to me the posts that reek most of desperation are those of BASIS boosters such as yourself dismissing any and all concerns as malicious scaremongering. I am in learning mode so its all good, and I understand people who post here will be opinionated almost by definition. Personally, however,  I think it is simply way too risky to attend a new charter no matter who the boss is or what the brochure says. There are simply too many variables, too many unknowns. A school community and character can only be built over many years. The dust will settle in a year or two and our family will revisit the issue at that time.[/quote]
