[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I skipped 4th grade but took an extra year of high school, as an exchange student in the UK, so I wasn't heading to college at 17. Getting in an extra year of enrichment as an older teen worked well for me - I went to an Ivy, studied world history and English lit, and loved it. If your problem is challenge in DCPS, skipping a grade will only solve it for so long. No DC middle school honors course in this city, other than 8th grade algebra (and 7th grade algebra at Deal). BASIS offers much tougher math than DCPS, but sounds really strange and limiting. [/quote] Why don't you actually visit the school and take a tour before you go lobbing accusations that BASIS is really strange and limiting?? Our DC is thriving at BASIS and is not limited at all.[/quote]
