[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bottom line with BASIS is this - it will be frustrating at times, but your children will be exceptionally well-prepared for any level of elite education. And if they're the type of kid who enjoys learning, they're likely to have a lot of fun with it, too.[/quote] As long as you don't need them to have any HS experience with sports, the arts, student government, grades with more than a couple of dozen students, etc. Grinding away on AP tests is not the same as getting ready to go to a campus with thousands of other students who come from real-sized schools. BIM is a Potemkin village organization that puts up a nice facade. Pull back the curtain, however, and the gaping holes appear. We'll see this spring how many teachers think there is a long-term future there given the management chaos.[/quote] Plenty of art student-led clubs and organizations at Basis. Sports are offered every single season but students are not interested. Is not a sports school, is not for everyone. Just don't send your kids here if you don't like it. Those of us who do, will.
