[quote=Anonymous]Ah yes, another Walls warrior here to huff and puff while carefully sidestepping, you know… data. Since we're apparently doing feelings over facts, let me bring a little STEM-based reality into your CAPS LOCK circle of trust. BASIS DC students outperform Walls in math and science proficiency — the actual subjects that matter in, say, the real world. You know, the one beyond this forum. 64% in math and 55% in science at BASIS vs. Walls' 57% and an anemic 33%. But sure, tell me again how BASIS kids aren’t 'as good.'

Let’s also chat college readiness, because unlike your emotionally charged anecdotal crusade, the numbers aren't on your side. BASIS boasts a 100/100 college readiness index and a perfect AP pass rate — not a fluke, but the result of actual academic rigor. Meanwhile, Walls — for all its 'prestige' and DCPS polish — clocks in slightly behind. It's cute that you think college admissions committees are swayed by a few overhyped extracurriculars when BASIS students are rolling up with 31 ACTs, 1340 SATs, and a STEM foundation that actually holds weight in selective programs.

So while you're here throwing shade about ‘franchises’ and 'grasping at straws,’ just know that BASIS students are out here grasping AP medals and college acceptance letters. Maybe if the energy spent whining here were redirected into data literacy, you'd realize that excellence isn’t about your nostalgic attachment to Walls — it's about outcomes. And on that front, BASIS doesn’t just compete. It dominates.[/quote]
