[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am hearing talk from a few Basis middle school parents that they have no intention of allowing their students to stay at Basis for high school. They are wondering if the honors/IB Diploma program at Eastern would be doable if a whole group of them went at once.  It is all questions at this point but the idea passing through their minds is a hopeful thing.[/quote]

I have volunteered at Eastern. If those parents are serious, they should get in touch with the principal to talk it through. I bet she would be excited by that idea. There are some great teachers at Eastern, and the faculty is incredibly dedicated. [/quote]

I totally agree, the parents from BASIS MS, contact Rachel Skerritt, Principal @ 202-698-4500, she would be delighted to have a conversation with those families.  Also, let the record show that our incoming 9th grade school population will have students from Hardy, Howard MS, Stuart Hobson, Jeferson, Chavez, KIPP, Deal and others.  The mixture of students from all over the city makes Eastern relevant and perpertually one of the school's systems best choice.  Merely, stating here it is a school that's going into their 4th year and thier inaugural incoming class is about to graduate.  Therefore, each year since the relaunch the population grew substantially to a point that they will be the second largest high-school next year.  It goes to show, growinng slow and steady was the precise thing to do and the results are readily embraced by the outcome of those who selected Eastern as their choice.

To those nay-sayers who have a dislike for Eastern, again the school that you don't want, just maybe is the same school that doesn't want you.  [/quote]
