[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's all relative. Most of the DCI parents we got to know in the program seemed to think the school's language instruction was fantastic. We're Europeans who thought it was just OK, helping explain why we aren't returning in the fall. The fact that BASIS won't allow students to study modern languages before 8th grade seems hopeless to. But I don't hear BASIS parents complaining about the policy.[/quote] I’m a BASIS parent. The reason I don’t complain about the language policy is because my kid has already been learning a language (not taught at BASIS) outside of school. The lack of mandatory language at lower grades at BASIS is perfect for us, because he now has time to master this language, and then take on a new one in 8th grade. I know other families like this, but haven’t asked them if this is the reason they don’t complain.[/quote]
