[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sure. If I could back to 4th, we'd have stuck things out at our DCPS for 5th and applied to parochial middle schools. We'd have figured something else out for high school, tried for Walls, maybe moved to NoVa temporarily or asked for help from family to afford parochial high school. We got the college result we wanted, but at high cost in time, money and frustration. Our kid would've liked the chance to pursue serious ECs with classmates.[/quote] This is the kind of thing that makes me so leery about BASIS. Yeah, it can get your kid through, but at what cost? I'd rather my kid go to a good college and not see education as traumatic (which I think will make them perform at a higher level) than eke into a great college on the back of 4-7 years of misery, anxiety and struggle.
