[quote=Anonymous]Are you open to insight or just bent on telling us how to think about the HOS? IME, the former HOS was much more open to initiative. She'd knock herself out to help kids get credit for outside activities, e.g. to incorporate independent research into the curriculum. If you went to her and said, I'd like my kid to opt out of beginning Spanish in 8th grade because he's already fluent, she'd listen and talk through your proposals for alternatives. If you said you wanted your kid to take an AP test in a subject not taught at BASIS or to apply to universities abroad, she'd get the ball rolling on admins and teachers helping you. Some of us don't like this guy's tunnel vision. We think he's full of himself with a tin ear. Yes, there are more sports and clubs and such now. Thing is, most of the activities he's generated are there to serve middle school students vs. high school students aiming high in college admissions.[/quote]
