[quote=Anonymous]I forgot to add that we have seen that the 5th grade Basis curricula is well thought out and well rounded as well. For example, science covers, in addition to scienece roots words for science. English covers not only grammar, writing, literature, but also vocabulary with emphasis on roots. English also covers as part of its literature mythology such as Greek myths. Classics covers prehistory/ancient history which includes Greek and Roman history as well as other aspects of world history. Art covers not only art techniques but also art history which includes ancient art. Latin of course covers Latin grammar, vocabulary but also roots. Music covers music theory and choir for 5th grade. So I think it is nicely rounded out. Basis may not have a mega facility but it is nice and the location is fantastic. Lastly, they offer a world class curricula IMO ans the founders of Basis want to see it succeed. So far, I am impressed.

Again, I would carefully check out Basis, tour the school, and ask questions before I ruled it out. [/quote]
