[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]None of this has anything to do with whether BASIS should be allowed to expand the ES. Did it ever cross your minds that if kids were able to start in K instead of being stuck in failing DCPS ESs then maybe they would be better prepared to handle the MS/HS curriculum? Perhaps the problem isn’t so much that BASIS washes kids out but that DCPS ESs don’t prepare kids adequately to handle the rigor of the BASIS curriculum.[/quote] Schools always think that their approach is going to be the magic bullet that overcomes poverty and generational trauma. Spoiler: BASIS getting kids earlier is not going to help kids succeed at BASIS MS and HS. The same crowd is going to wash out. [/quote]
