[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I'm gathering from all this information is that BASIS middle school has the most challenging curriculum in DC, but the high school curriculum is limited, and that Walls and JR give students the opportunity to advance farther in the subjects that they accel in. Useful to know. I'm very happy to send our kid there for 5-8, and we can make another decision/lottery/apply in 4 years. Curious what Banneker and McKinley will offer then, too.[/quote]

Don't believe everything you read.  Lots of the posts above are by people who know nothing about BASIS and/or have a chip on their shoulder and/or are focusing on trivial curriculum issues.

The high school curriculum is very challenging--just like the middle school curriculum.  And a lot more than Walls or J-R.

For example, just look at all the threads from BASIS parents whose kids went to Walls or J-R for high school and found the curriculum at those schools much less rigorous.  And take a look at PARCC scores as well.  BASIS has the highest 9th and 10th grade PARCC scores in DC.[/quote]
