[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Regarding open slots, when I asked, I heard from BASIS staff that they are *NOT* worried about their numbers, and are in good shape for the year. Also, remember that their model and intent is to recruit 5th graders (which is full) and work cohorts up through the ranks from there, not to recruit in 6th and other upper grades. It's also normal and expected for them to have some students switch out to other schools in those upper grades. Remember, this is not their first foray into spinning up a new charter, they've done this over a half dozen times before. So relax. The sky is *NOT* falling.[/quote] Also, as a newish school they already are one of the largest public middle schools in DC. And they have among the highest test scores, and their diverse student body is attracting all types of students from all around the city.[/quote]
