[quote=Anonymous]^I doubt it. Been inside the BASIS DC building? The boosters have a fit when anybody points this out but, honestly, it looks and feels a bit like a jail. I attended a graduation ceremony for a niece at one of the Tuscon campuses, a green and pleasant place. The lack of outdoor space, athletic facilities and plans for a serious sports program here will remain a turn-off for many, as will the population pyramid issues, with around two-thirds of the kids dropping out along the way. I don't doubt that BASIS will do OK, given the dearth of halfway decent public middle-school options in the city coupled with Latin's attachment to social promotion, and allergy to tracking, but I'd be surprised if BASIS ever becomes really hot.
