[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]EA at BASIS is going to be a disaster. [/quote] That's not really fair. Being disadvantaged doesn't mean you're unintelligent. It also doesn't mean you aren't serious about school. [/quote] Success at BASIS depends on being able to pass tests based on cumulative learning - intelligence isn’t enough if the kids are starting out behind & don’t have resources at home to catch up. Personally I think it would be good for BASIS to somewhat soften what I understand is their approach to high-stakes testing. Like, kids can advance with a lower score but have to double up the next year on math or writing. That way you’re keeping the rigor of BASIS but giving kids more chances. [/quote]
