[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does Basis have Homecoming? Does it have a Prom? Are there big football games or athletic events the kids go to show school spirit? Is there a golf team? Is there school security? If you are strictly looking for academics and don’t care about the social experience or extracurriculars, Basis is probably ok. According to Niche.com, the schools numbers look great, but our kids are into to many extracurricular activities that are non academic.[/quote] For the record, the answer to all of your questions, other than the big football games and golf team, is yes. Basis is a very good school, among the top for STEM. In a general sense, I would not put it in the same league as the Big 3 or even Potomac. But for some, Basis is a perfect fit. I’m a current parent there and have no shame in admitting it’s not the absolute top school in the area in the general sense. It just works well for what it’s focused on.[/quote]
