[quote=Anonymous]Current parent bit of a high schooler There is a concerted effort to reduce homework for middle schoolers now. But the content (except English) is accelerated. Your child would be covering a lot of 9th and 10th grade material in 7th and 8th. Many kids thrive on it. Some don’t (including my younger kid who left before high school). My younger kid has found that much of the work at their new school is review for them (9th and 10th). I think it depends on your kid, and also your choices. would we have chosen BASIS if we could afford private or weee IB for Deal? Probably not. But my older kid has been accepted at their first choice college, with a significant merit scholarship, and is well prepared. That was my kid’s goal and priority, from a young age, and BASIS helped make it happen. [/quote]
