[quote=Anonymous]Maybe and let's use our common sense here! There are a variety of differt scenarios that can describe a Basis family. If your child is doing well, then that's great and they only needed minimal support. If your child is struggling, you may need to see what the problem is and it may not all be that they can't do it. These kids come from all different types of schools and social background and none of them were acceptable if they wouldn't have brought their children to Basis any way they were just the best that they could find at the time. Then here comes this school that makes all these promises and sets the structure but truth is they are still experimenting! I mean can we at least agree with that? They have already fired 4 of the teachers there and all before the 3rd semester and 2nd semester with other schools since Basis has 5 semesters. Pluse don't forget the children also have to pass the comp test in the middle of the school year to pass to the next grade. If a person can stick it out with Basis then that's their choic but I'm not mad at the parents that are pullin their child out now or that are secretly planning to pull them next year because of the confusion. I myself am on the fence about pulling my child out especially because now I would have to just put her in a school that would take her and not a school of my choice! I love their freedom of expression they have at Basis, no uniforms and their independence and city life they get to experience but some of that may be a little too advanced and mature for some kids. It just depends on your child. I have 2 kids at Basis and one can handle the independence a little better that the other. [/quote]
