[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Actually PP was right. While in 2014-15 there was one group of students who took a class called LEAP Chemistry instead of regular 8th grade Chemistry, that was not an option for 2015-16.

All students were going to be required to take regular 8th grade chemistry and they could have taken an additional LEAP Chemistry class as an elective. It was a BASIS network-wide decision, not a BASIS DC decision. And in the end, no 8th graders decided to do that.

I know a few 8th graders who wanted to take both, if that was the only way to get LEAP, but in the end, BASIS DC decided not to have the class.[/quote]

Assuming you are the parent of a current child, seems like a great issue to bring up at the 12/1 meeting with the CEO.[/quote]

Why? what's done is done and it can't be changed. Just means that AP Physics probably won't happen for my student, which combined with the the lighter workload this year, may be blessings in disguise. Generally very happy with the the quality of instruction and don't see the point bellyaching over every little decision not made by polling the parents. They have been doing his for years and I trust that BASIS has a game plan.

Plus, what has the bellyaching gotten anyone? [/quote]

One more plus - not getting a young teen up so early. My 9th grader is in the 7:45 AM AP Chemistry class and the early start sucks. His commute via metro is 50 minutes door to door assuming no Red Line issues. [/quote]
