[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I find threads like this very frustrating because there ARE middle schools in DC which offer the range of experiences people claim to be looking for when criticizing BASIS. The only thing they are lacking is a large cohort of high performing students. If you hate BASIS, send your kid to SH or E-H! They have good facilities, good extracurriculars, etc, etc. I think charter schools played a critical role in getting parents to stay in DC, but I also think that now there's no question that there are a bunch of DCPS middle schools who would thrive if charter schools ceased to exist.[/quote] The only reason charters even exist is because people feel like DCPS failed them. It seems a little rich to now say DCPS would be great if not for charters. [/quote] Sorry... Should have said: But it's still true with respect to certain schools, which is what I said.[/quote]
