[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To 4:36: I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt on the tracking and/or providing challenging material to kids that are ready for it. SAT scores in the two Arizona schools that have been established for a while are Tucson 1,933 and Scottsdale 1,951.  By comparison

Langley High School: 1812 
James Madison High School: 1730 was 
George C. Marshall High School: 1702 
McLean High School: 1755 
Oakton High School: 1753 
Thomas Jefferson High School for Science & Technology: 2186

Not quite in Jefferson’s’ league, but still.

The generally Spartan building/facilities may be part of their plan.  An article on other brand new basis schools mentioned that they are designed that way so that they will have more funding for academics. (Not a bad tradeoff.)  Rowdiness is something different. Something that can undo even the best intentions and that hopefully something that Basis DC can work out.   The school is still brand new and DC is probably one of the toughest places for basis to prove themselves.
