[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last PPs' point re: magnets made me look up BASIS demographics, because as far as I can tell it most closely resembles what people say they want in a Magnet. It's 36% African-American, 39% White, 7 or 8% of Asian, Hispanic, and Multiracial. I'd say that's decent representation, especially given a downtown location easily accessible from NW and the Hill (i.e., lots of white families).[/quote] +1. BASIS is great at many levels[/quote] And less than 10% at-risk and less than 5% special needs. Proving once again that class, not race, is the real driver of what makes BASIS great at many levels. And, yes, it's nice that it's racially diverse but the diversity isn't driving the academic progress, the income of families is. [/quote]
