[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A current BASIS McLean teacher was at BASIS DC for numerous years since its inception, where they were teaching and responsible for the grades - - report cards, AP’s, SAT’s, which were administered inside the school. This teacher was totally manipulating the grades both by boosting them or otherwise. In 2016, a HS teacher together with a few students went to the new admin to report that the grades in these students’ end of year report cards were considerably lower than the grades he had received. The new principal, after examining the spreadsheets told the teacher and the students that it was a “ computer glitch”. This teacher who advocated for the students was terminated the next day, just a couple days before the start of the new school year and the BASIS DC teacher who was responsible now for the grades was moved to McLean, the very first day school started. I know this for sure because I was one of the students. 
 I will not be surprised if this same teacher is manipulating certain students’ grades at BASIS McLean. [/quote]

One teacher and one staff member are still there after coming over from BASIS DC when it was founded in 2016.  You can check the website.  This potential problem hasn't been mentioned anywhere as far as I know.

If grades were depressed, plenty of parents and kids would have screamed bloody murder.  [/quote]
