[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes some parents choose one school over the other. But please remember that Basis actively counsels kids out in middle school. And before anyone argues that this isn’t true, I know a child who goes to Basis whose parents were told this probably wasn’t a good fit for them and too difficult and they might want to transfer.[/quote] That's right. It's not a school for everyone. It's a school that works best for kids who are ok with very accelerated work (literally just learning more in within the same time period). Not geniuses, just kids who are not stressed by acceleration. This thread is about why some people in bounds for JR might choose BASIS (or Latin). Hopefully it's clear that it's not crazy for some families to make that choice. Clearly many, many families choose to stay at JR. [/quote]
