[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd rather have my children in a school where two-thirds of the families don't vote with their feet between the entry year and the terminal year. [/quote] Attrition is not voting with your feet. People leave Basis for different reasons. And there is no social promotion or backfill. I would rather have my kids at a school where they are challenged and taught above grade level. [/quote] Yes. BASIS DC is the only public school in DC that doesn’t socially promote and backfill. So, of course, the upper grades are much smaller than the lower grades. Not sure how that is a bad thing for a 100% lottery school.[/quote]
