[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The school just opened in 2012, as the first BASIS charter school outside of Arizona, so obviously it had some transition issues and growing pains.  Some of the HOS were interim.  As HOS, I count Mary Riner Siddall, Paul Morrisey, Tim Eyerman, Jill Garrett, John Hillis, and now Alex Rose-Henig.  What three am I missing?

USNWR ranks BASIS DC #3 for DC high schools, after SWW (founded 1971) and Kipp (founded 1994).  All the BASIS schools have the same curriculum, and there are 9 BASIS schools in the top 100 charter high schools nationally (with BASIS DC high school listed as number 227 nationally).  By way of comparison, Wilson (1935) is listed as #10 in DC and #5173 nationally for high schools.  This year, only 32 people were accepted to Yale from DC and PG County (both public and private schools); BASIS DC had 3.  So, BASIS DC doesn’t seem to be doing too badly given that they have only been around for 8 years and had a different HOS every year or two.[/quote]

Above list is missing Sean Aiken[/quote]
