[quote=Anonymous]I guess the real question is why do you want to move? No comparison in the academic rigor between the two. Three important notes- 1. Is your child taking a language? You should look at the highest level offered at Banneker and whether your language is offered. 2. Banneker automatically places you in Algebra I as a Freshman. Regardless of what appear on your transcript. Banneker will make you test in to Geometry or higher. It is RARE that they will place you in Algebra 2 or higher as a Freshman. 3. Banneker limits the number of APs you can take. I had children at all 3 schools (Banneker, Basis and Walls). My child was miserable a BASIS and didn’t have a social life due to the amount of work at BASIS, we moved them to Banneker and they are a much happier kid. Their mental well being was most important to me. There are significant trade offs but we did what was the best fit for each child. [/quote]
