You are wondering why students in 11th grade are leaving BASIS?
How about the final exam grades being so low that the  "A" and the "B"s  maintained throughout the year transform into all "D"s  and a 3.4 GPA after the 2nd trimester suddenly becomes a 2.2 at the end of the year. The report card arrives in the mail with grades that do not make any sense, implying that all year long the student was  fine, but at the end of the year, only after the final exam, the student suddenly becomes, as a few personnel so eloquently put it "not BASIS material". Thankfully one teacher spoke out and said the grades on the report card were not the ones that had been submitted ... maybe this is why this teacher was suddenly let go of in July.[/quote]

if you did understand how kids are graded during the year and how the final grade is constructed, you would know that it is totally possible to get to the comprehensive exam with a goog grade, say b+ or even a-, and end up with a c. No foul play necessary. 
I think you should develop an understanding of the system before making these accusations (your children would also benefit from it too). [/quote]
