[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s a no-brainer. Don’t plan on BASIS working out. If you start in 5th; think in terms of taking it year by year. Adolescence is complicated and BASIS is strange. The best laid plans can fall apart for teenagers in any school. We know kids who became non-plussed by BASIS in various grades, all the way from 5th to 10th It happens so cover your bases; have a Plan B at all times. [/quote] Non plussed has two meanings and I can't seem to fit either one into that sentence. In any case, the tricky thing about BASIS is that it's an incredible opportunity for some kids, a disaster for others, and just not that great of an experience for others. For us, our kids are happy, learning a ton and we all feel extremely grateful literally every day for the opportunity. But we know others in the other two categories. If you have a kid who will actually enjoy it, you don't want to miss out on the chance to go.[/quote]
