[quote=Anonymous]I tried to put my son in a private school but did not qualify for any help (I do not live below poverty level, and I am not qualified as a minority even though we are recent immigrants). I am dismayed at the fact that his current school has no clear curriculum and uses no texbooks/workbooks. Teachers seem to be so busy "creating" curriculum, photocopying and passing out papers that they have no time to teach. From what I've seen and heard, DIRECT TEACHING IS NONEXISTENT in DC public schools. My son attends one of the supposedly best charter schools in DC, but reading independently,writing slogans and designing T-shirts is not what we had in mind when we enrolled him. His education is being utterly shortchanged. I am rooting for BASIS, hoping it delivers what it stands for. [/quote]
