[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]a lot of the people who support advanced programming for middle and high school children are actually some of the same people who most dislike basis. basis run by a for-profit arizona charter is a relatively poor substitute for well-rounded programming for more advanced students. it also at a systemic level siphons kids off leaving a relatively weaker cohort behind at some of the neighborhood public schools reducing the pressure/need to offer more advanced programming at those schools.[/quote] But that implies that there is or was "well-rounded programming for more advanced students" in DC. You can argue that it might have happened in the last decade if Basis didn't exist, but I'm very skeptical. The choice isn't between a specific school and the perfect school, it's among the DC public and charter schools.[/quote]
