[quote=Anonymous]You know what's misplaced and sad? A US city trying to run an academic powerhouse public middle school/high school without any admissions criteria beyond self-selection and lottery luck. No other major US city does this. We know kids at Latin 1, Latin Cooper, Stuart Hobson, DCI and ITS who would have been leaders of the pack in math and science at BASIS. In New York, Boston, San Fran, Chicago and Dallas these kids could've tested into a STEM magnet program. In DC, some kids who struggle with math wind up at BASIS. Meanwhile, many kids who are bored silly in math in other programs cannot enroll. The system is ridiculous.[/quote]
