[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This. When our kids were at BASIS, we got to know fellow test-in public magnet grads from big cities around the country who weren't bowled over by the education their children were receiving and weren't impressed with the school's leadership either. A few loved the place but most would they'd say that they tolerated BASIS because they couldn't afford both private MS and HS and didn't want to move from DC. These parents were mostly Federal civil servants, academics, non-profit workers or journalists. Their prevalence at BASIS helps explain substantial attrition after MS. We used our years in DCPS and BASIS to save for a HS where the curriculum stresses critical thinking, creativity, inquiry, independent research, hands-on learning, the arts, advanced language work and other academic offerings not available at BASIS. [/quote] So where did you end up?[/quote]
