[quote=Anonymous]Super great points 14:21. You wait, most of the Basis boosters will have fallen by the wayside before 12th - without selective admissions, thoughtfully done, the writing is on the wall for great attrition at Basis before and during HS, or, at a minimum, a law suit-generating second track, a la Yu Ying. Parents who were never on the path to Bronx Science, or one of the other highly competitive HS programs in the country, do lack experience with selective admissions ES and MS programs. So they're happy to buy into pie in the sky thinking, assuaging their white/high-SES guilt via buying into open lottery admissions as the route to the success high-end charters like Basis and Latin. No dice, but your view will still be a hard sell. If you lack funds for privates, I'd head to the outer burbs, where they speak your language of logic and pragmatism, fluently. [/quote]
