[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All will be well if your kid doesn't advocate for an elected middle school student government, ethics training, first aid training, cooking classes, a gardening club, a bona fide school musical, a band or orchestra, or any other activity that might build toward a full-fledged education. That approach could get them in hot water fast.  Now, if your kid advocates for extra pre pre AP prep and a nicely organized binder or two, smooth sailing, mom.[/quote]

Love how this PP failed as a parent but is trying to shift the blame onto Basis. My kid already had first aid training cooking classes and learned to garden before coming to Basis, because I taught him as part of basic parenting. Are you spending any time with your kid at all??[/quote]

Don't take the bait, PP, don't respond. The point is a good one. Basis doesn't offer an actual education. The programs offers intensive test prep, that's it. Basis parents know this and it rankles them privately. So they get defensive whenever this is pointed out on DCUM.  Yawn.[/quote]

Yes, it's just free Kaplan courses. [/quote]
