[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The BASIS franchise wasn’t founded by educators, it was started by the Blocks, non educators. Few BASIS parents see anything wrong with their language policy. If you’re the kind of parent who cares about bilingualism, best to stay away. You’ll be treated like a pest at BASIS.[/quote] Setting aside the weird fixation on the founders, let's assume for the sake of argument what you say is true. Let's assume that the majority of BASIS families are fine with the the lack of focus on language. You see that as an illustration that they are all wrong and sheep. Couldn't one argue that it is an indication that these families made informed choices, understood that in the absence of a perfect school, this one best fit their priorities, and that in fact you and your cabal are the ones who are idiots for sending your kids to a school that so badly fits your priorities? Based on your frequency of posts, tone and lack of consistency in your arguments, you are a pest! P.S. Many BASIS families would love a language introduced earlier. We advocate for it. We hope it changes. But we knew what we signed up for. We don't have the sense of entitlement of people like you who knew or should have known the rules of the game but believed that because they wanted it the rules would change once they arrived.
