[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How has BASIS McLean done so far this year?

What is that? I am unfamiliar. Public? Private? [/quote]

It was rated the #1 private school in Virginia by Niche.[/quote]

Uhh I am skeptical of the criteria used for that ranking. I think number one varies and this would not be a good fit for my child. They are very athletic, very social, preppy, loves sports and wants a school that excels in sports and has a lot of team spirit. I just think it is probably a great school for some but not for a child such as mine. [/quote]

Not sure of the criteria either but, as with any generalized ranking system of schools, I’m confident that it wasn’t about what’s best for your individual child. Perhaps a lower ranked school with better athletics is a better fit. Would look at Potomac School for example. [/quote]

My child got a 1580 on SAT so they are pretty academic but the community and social atmosphere are also important to them. [/quote]

Would have been a 1600 if they went to BIM[/quote]
