[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basis (DC charter, not private) refused to write recommendations for my child for Walls, it was in their best interest to not write them so kids would stay for HS. [/quote] That seems like something you should take up with the school. That’s actually pretty egregious if that’s true.[/quote] Several BASIS MS students went to Walls this year, as well as some who got in but did not go. Others went to private high schools. Presumably they all got the required recommendation letters from their teachers. Teachers may have had various reasons -- maybe fair, maybe not -- not to write every letter requested of them, but it's not true that they didn't write any.[/quote] This. BASIS sends some kids to Walls every year. The teachers/admin don't go out of their way to guide kids through the process, but some kids get in (and have rec letters, etc, sent) every year. [/quote]
