[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The LATEST a BASIS student can take algebra is 7th grade. Brent parents, are you listening? [/quote] Algebra in 7th grade is ridiculous. Maybe for a few math whiz kids, OK, but across the board is abusive. When do BASIS kids have time to relax? We need more quality alternatives than BASIS, Latin, or language immersion, clearly.[/quote] Algebra in 7th grade is not abusive when you appropriately choose it for your kid. It is called school choice after all. I chose BASIS for my kid because I knew it was a good fit and I also did not choose plenty of other schools for my kid since I knew they would be a bad fit. Moreover, the math program BASIS does a lot of preparation in 5th and 6th grade for Algebra 1 in 7th grade in addition to a ton of supports.[/quote]
