[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find it interesting that the vast majority of posts on a thread titled BASIS to [b]Banneker[/b] are about people's experiences going to Walls. [/quote]

Haven't read the whole thread. Has anyone posted with [b]experience of going to Banneker?[/b][/quote]

From BASIS?  No - because nobody does that.

Yup.  That would be crazy![/quote]

Good grief, BASIS burns through teachers like crazy, particularly capable STEM middle school instructors.  DCPS pays better and doesn't demand as much from teachers in the highest-performing programs.  Of course the odd teacher bails from BASIS to DCPS.  What else can inveterate BASIS boosters deny?  I've lost track. [/quote]

Teacher retention is a challenge throughout DC and the nation.

The problem with DCPS is that bad teachers stay since it almost impossible to fire them.  That is not an issue at BASIS.  Some of the teachers who leave BASIS did not have their contracts renewed.

Basis doesn't have any more issues retaining teachers than any other DC charter.[/quote]
