[quote=Anonymous]We can all pretend that BASIS offers a well-rounded education on par with elite test-in magnet schools around the country, wherever they are, if it makes is feel good. My classmates and I were expected to do far more thinking, creating, analyzing, discovering, collaborating and reading in middle school at Boston Latin than my BASIS middle school students were encouraged to do. To be fair, the math challenge was comparable, the science instruction more serious and the geography was worthwhile. The rest of the curriculum, the daily grind and the dog-eat-dog approach to learning we could have done without. [/quote]
