[quote=Anonymous]No longer have a dog in this fight, but know that DC parents kid themselves that the trade-off doesn't take a toll on the kids. I say this having working at BASIS DC, lasting but a school year (although my contract was renewed). The set up just isn't a healthy arrangement for adolescents. There isn't enough light, air, space to run around. There aren't enough places to read and reflect quietly in good light. It's not uncommon for middle school kids, particularly boys, to develop mild behavioral problems in the building. The young BASIS executives who chose the space are long gone from the franchise and Arizona leaders well aware that the building is subpar (helping explain chronic high staff turnover). The worst of the facilities in the constellation of Arizona campuses are much more pleasant. I also worked for BASIS AZ. [/quote]
