[quote=Anonymous]"I'm transferring my DC from Latin to BASIS." I'm thinking of doing the same -- would love to know your reasons. My reasons have to do with the different philosophies and where our particular child needs help. Latin tends to rely on parents to keep things on track. Latin's full of responsible kids and hands-on parents, and so it works well for most. And Latin has great teachers. They are, in fact, phenomenal, inspirational and committed. In order to get parents to backstop the process, the teachers go to great lengths to keep parents informed of what the homework assignments are, and whether the assignments were turned in, so the parents could stay on top of it. It's a lot to ask of these teachers! And guess what, very stressful for parents of smart but disorganized kids. I wished they had created an ironclad organizational system, taught it to the kids, and reinforced it at school. That is what Basis is offering. [/quote]
