[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]...the hope that your kid is the BASIS type. [/quote] Serious question from a Hill mom with a 2.5 year old trying to understand the possible roads ahead -- what does it mean to be a BASIS type of kid?[/quote] I will bite but am sure to get bitten. BASIS type of kids are very academic even to the point of being nerds and either have no extracurricular interests/sports ability or very esoteric extracurricular interests, like gymnastics, ice skating, making solar-powered vehicles, writing plays. How’s that, Ward 6 school-hive? Latin is considered the “more rounded” fit, since it has more sports and not as much of an academic focus. If you send your child to BASIS, you are a weird/ nerd/tiger parent and your kids are weird/nerds/overpowered and protected by you. All I know is that the drug culture at Latin high school rivals SWW. [/quote]
