[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We have an academically advanced child that participates in extracurriculars at BASIS and does other competitive sports outside of school too. We would agree that the building isn’t an amazing facility but our child is thriving with the learning/academics, and the building doesn’t actually seem to bother them.  I also went to school in Europe where schools aren’t the sprawling suburban campuses that it seems many parents in the US expect. I’ve never been concerned that my child doesn’t get enough physical movement between commuting to school on public transit, moving between classes throughout the day and extracurricular activities every day of the week. I don’t think the academic rigor is for everyone, but middle school has been very positive for my child who finally feels challenged in a positive way. Know your kid, but also learn to accept the strengths and shortcomings of public school in DC. [/quote]
