[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My hunch about churn in leadership is that Basis tells promising school heads to do a year or 2 in DC to prepare for. Agreed advancement elsewhere. DC gives them a 'baptism by fire', after which they can handle anything. On the subject o the value of Basis despite the mentioned shortcomings GW is that these kids get a real feeling of mastery and accomplishment. They learn so much in such a short time that [b]they earn the belief they are special/gifted and prepared with the basic knowledge that positions them to excel early in their chosen field.[/b] I say this as a parent of a kid who left at 9th grade for a fancy private, and now regret it.[/quote] Sounds like entitlement to me.
