[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is virtually no connection between the high-performing charter version of BASIS and the for-profit private equity version. And you know that.

It's not "quirky" for schools to be profit driven, it's anathema to how most view the motivation of what an educational system should be.

And it's not tinfoil hat stuff, look at the lineage of the ownership. Look at the board members, their other investments and their affiliations. Look at the parent company of the investment vehicle.  Do you own research.  Accept the risk if you choose but don't dismiss it because you're too intellectually lazy to analyze it. [/quote]

You are nuts and unhinged. Nobody said anything about Basis charter schools. The Basis independent schools and the curriculum existed before Spring Education came in and acquired the network of schools. The first few years of Basis McLean wasn’t even under Spring’s ownership. Highly doubt any of the students there even realize or care what happened above the school level, there are 0 effects on the classroom.[/quote]
