Mistakes were made in year 1 when Basis DC opened. Mistakes occur the first few years when any school opens. Basis DC got sued for not providing adequate special education accommodations. They took measures to fix it, hiring a special ed coordinator as well as others. Schools, both charter and public, frequently get sued for failure to provide accommodations. Parents I know are satisfied with the 504 and IEP accommodations that their children are now receiving.
