[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re painting with too broad a brush. It’s far from ideal for kids/teens to spend at least 40 hrs a week on a cramped, dreary campus with little natural light and no greenery. Come on, the cafeteria has black walls and no windows. [b]But it’s true that some tolerate the arrangement far better than others. [/b]That’s the story with BASIS DC in the big picture. [/quote] That's why the best situation is when all those who don't like the school leave.[/quote] I don’t agree. When it’s the BASIS way or the highway in every case, kids suffer. It’s good when clued-in parents with some chutzpah stick around to push back against seriously unreasonable or sloppy management decisions, policies and practices. The routine hiring of MS teachers with no [b]real content background [/b]or teaching experience is one. Recent parental pressure has been efffecting welcome change in that area.[/quote] Get over yourself it is MS. You want science teachers from Los Alamos then pony up for private Captain.[/quote]
