[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]hello, Basis operators -- it's fine for you to post here, but would be nice if you identified yourselves -- especially when it's so obvious.

Basis may not propose to humiliate students -- it just will when kids are held back.  They won't have to counsel them out either -- kids will beg to leave rather than be held back.

I think it's great for schools to meet the needs of advanced learners, as long as they don't mistreat the less-advanced in the process[/quote]

I am a parent of a future Basis student and [b]not[/b] an operator :mrgreen:

How is offering extensive tutoring for many months this year prior to the start of the upcoming school year and offering daily tutoring sessions and supports prior to and after school during the school year mistreating anyone???

How is repeating a grade mistreating anyone?? Repeating a grade should [b]not[/b] automatically be assumed to be humiliating. That is your point of view. I "failed" some classes in school and know of others who had to repeat grades and they were able to put a positive spin on it and make the most of the experience. After all, we often grow and learn from our "failures."[/quote]
