[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basis markets itself as a more rigorous alternative to the local public schools. There is no specific focus on at-risk students and they are unlikely to implement a voluntary at-risk lottery preference. I think some of the Arizona schools do not even have a free/reduced cost lunch program. It is tiring to keep going in circles on this point.[/quote] The only point is that BASIS is not an impressive school relative to its demographics, and that comparing BASIS with schools that are different demographically and in their policies is misleading and unhelpful. And that BASIS boosters hate to acknowledge that BASIS is low at-risk on purpose, and they have no explanation for poor retention of Black/AA students.[/quote]
