[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Their student retention also stinks. No other DC charter routinely loses half their families before the terminal grade. [/quote] Few other charters hold their students to real standards [/quote] Other charters operate multiple tracks to accommodate students who are working to different standards. It’s understandable that the PCSB prefers schools that take responsibility for educating all the students they enroll. Basis is as much a sorting mechanism as a school. [/quote] If DC would let them use a merit-based admissions process, I would expect to see better student retention. Until DC offers those option to the families of high-achieving students, I see BASIS upholding standards in its grade promotion as a feature, not a bug.[/quote]
