[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BASIS just doesn't compare favorably to the best suburban high schools in this Metro area. This is the stuff of pure fantasy. I know this because I sent my kid to BASIS and used to work in a couple of the highest-performing high schools in this Metro area. Have you seen the engineering labs in some of the Fairfax high schools? The marine biology research lab at TJ? The school musicals supported by full orchestras in NoVa and MoCo? The high schools teaching Higher Level International Bacclaureate classes (2 years past the AP level) in 8 or 10 languages? BASIS DC does offer competitive advanced math, because advanced math is cheap to teach. That's about it where world-class offerings at BASIS DC go.[/quote] Nice try. Those are much bigger schools. M-B has 900 in the senior class; Basis DC has 50. In fact, Basis DC has better college admissions per capita than most suburban DMV schools including M-B, Whitman, etc. [/quote]
