[quote=Anonymous]I have a current/new 5th grader at BASIS and it’s been a great experience thus far for our child. They’ve previously been in both DCPS and DSPCS schools for language immersion, which both had its pros/cons. Our child has taken very well to the organization, structure and variety of subjects (2 science classes, math, history, English, writing, art, music, and PE) provided as part of the curriculum. Additionally, there are both afterschool sports (they compete against other charters like Latin, DCI, etc) and various clubs. Our child already speaks multiple languages at home, so we feel we can supplement that at home knowing that they will take linguistics next year.

Is the school perfect, no!? What what school is? I definitely don’t think it would be a great fit for all kids, but BASIS seems to be a positive change for my child where they definitely seem to enjoy the academic challenge. As previous posters said, be cautious not to fall too deep into the trap of the DCUM naysayers…to each their own! [/quote]
