[quote=Anonymous]Right, but your argument that BASIS promotes "intellectual curiosity" on a par with suburban middle school GT programs falls short. BASIS relies on academic conformity packaged as rigor. March in step, shut up, we decide where your kid's intellectual curiosity, and academic achievement, starts and ends. Flexibility, open-mindedness and respect for unique academic backgrounds, achievement and interests is not BASIS' strong suit. The curriculum doesn't seem to be the issue as much as the narrow-mindedness and paternalism of franchise leaders and admins.[/quote]
