[quote=Anonymous]BIM needs to do two things in order to be successful.

1) BASIS Independent Schools needs to find a solid, experienced Head of School, pay them, and LET THEM DO THEIR JOB. The central office in Arizona meddles entirely too much and simply does not understand the unique challenges of operating in a high-academic environment with the unique types of competitors that exist here. BIM needs its version of Hadley Ruggles or Toby Walker - there's a reason why the Brooklyn and Silicon Valley campuses have been so successful.

2) BASIS Independent Schools needs to eat the cost and just build out the other side of the building. You're leasing and paying for the space anyway, and building out that side will give folks something to believe in. That will allow them to actually begin to sell a real high school experience like the one that exists at those other campuses.

Essentially, start fresh. You have a strong academic product to sell and you have several outstanding teachers, but it has to conform to what this area wants.[/quote]
