[quote=Anonymous]We are in the "staying at Latin, keeping an eye on BASIS" camp as well. I keep hearing that BASIS will be superior to Latin in math. Latin offers Algebra in 7th grade, as does BASIS. What I don't see at BASIS is geometry. Where is it? Is it blended into one of the other math classes? One of things that I see at Latin that I don't at BASIS is Statistics (which seems useful for a lot of professions -- I certainly use it more than calculus in my work -- I took both in college). Also, how will BASIS be better than Latin in science. Will they have actual labs? I guess that would be attractive although I know that Latin does offer science every year of middle school. [/quote]
