[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Everybody who thinks parents shouldn't use BASIS for 5th grade alone can...get stuffed. We did that to burnish DD's private middle school applications. We weren't alone.[/quote] I actually don't recommend this practice. If you are applying to private middle schools, it's better to stay at your current elementary for 5th grade in order to get better teacher recommendations and so your kid doesn't have to switch schools twice (it's stressful to switch once as is). Plus, applying to privates is a lot of work (essays, tours, interviews, etc) to do on top of normal school work.[/quote]
