[quote=Anonymous]BASIS certainly doesn't have to be everything for ambitious families in unusual situations asking no more than a little flexibility on curriculum at no expense to BASIS. Not impressed with a program where admins actively deter families from enrolling, and encourage them to leave, for shooting for academic excellence in a knowledge area BASIS doesn't value: bilingualism and biliteracy in a major world language in the teenage years. How would it hurt BASIS if it was educating kids who could score 5s on an AP language test in 8th or 9th grade, with parents paying for the acceleration to get these results? It wouldn't. From BASIS' perspective, the danger is that parents would emerge as stakeholders worth involving in policy decisions.[/quote]
