[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work at BASIS as a substitute teacher now and then. I've also subbed in DCPS and MoCo schools.

The BASIS building is the absolute worst of the dozen school buildings I've worked in.  No real gym, no library, no outdoor space, no music room, no performance space, weak art space and I could go on.  It's a dreary set-up at best, no matter how wonderful the teaching may be.

I also have real doubts about BASIS academics, at least as compared to the MoCo magnets I've subbed for.  There seem to be few Eureka moments, and little respect for individual learning styles or backgrounds.  Many teachers are inexperienced and turnover is high, including mid-year.[/quote]

We don’t care how Basis compares to Moco magnets.  And we all know the building is lousy.  But many of us chose it over SH, paying for private, or moving to the suburbs.[/quote]

+1 DCPS doesn’t have true magnets like Moco. BASIS is as rigorous as we can get for public in DC.[/quote]
