[quote=Anonymous]BASIS sucked the joy of learning out of my kid. They were bored bored by the robotic curriculum and multiple choice test. The stress for stress sake environment stressed them out too. The homework was a lot and rote at the same time. Very little creativity, problem solving, or writing. My kid did develop good skills keeping track of assignments. Multiple teachers left mid year & at lest one who taught incorrect math material or acted inappropriately or didn’t show up to classes etc for the year. There were several very good teachers too. Even some of those seemed to have a crazy large # of students. If that means my kid “washed out” as the BASIS dcum defenders call it well okay! We moved to Montgomery County and their curiosity, innate joy of learning, confidence and spark is back! Getting straight As. Has high school paths that offer many electives, clubs, etc. [/quote]
