[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]out of 45 high school seniors, there are already 6 of them accepted to Ivy League Schools

[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The answer is yes if they live in-bounds for both Deal and JR because they know that's always a backup if it isn't working out.

Basis has a larger issue for HS in that it is so small.  It doesn't offer the "high school experience" so to speak...so you see attrition to Walls and elsewhere including private.

Perhaps it's getting better on that front.[/quote]
It is getting better because it is harder to get into Walls.

When it used to be a test - BASIS students were all in play for being selected for the interview.
Now that the test is removed, not everyone from BASIS who wants to move makes the cut.  [/quote]

BASIS is getting better? Proof of this? The HoS does seem better but that's about it.

BASIS DC is in terrible debt and it shows in the way the campus runs. BASIS' high school isn't getting bigger either if that's what you're claiming.  [/quote][/quote]

That means that well over 13% of the class was accepted early to Ivies (SCEA/ED), and we are still early in the admission season.

What other public school in DC can match that percentage?[/quote]
