[quote=Anonymous]Basis has a math team, science bowl team, debate team, and robotics team. They have a chess club, running clubs, soccer, art history club, yoga, art club, drama club, string club, flag football, and student leadership club for starters. More clubs are being planned for as well as sports.

As for academics, there web site has the brochure spelling it all out. Students take Latin for 5th and 6th. For 7th grade onward they have the option to take Mandarin, French, or Spanish. They offer Mandarin, French, or Spanish for 5th and 6th graders as an extracurricular enrichment classes and I believe they will offer these for older students as a second language.

As for PE, it is Tae Kwon Do which is mostly done in the exercise room. My child has enjoyed these classes!!

Our experience has been great and so far I think Basis is living up to their promise of a rigorous education. They do offer tours. The building is meant to be used for middle and high school but who knows maybe they will be expand someday. As for music and art, 5th graders take art classes and music classes which have been great.[/quote]
