[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We live in DC EotP, where the BASIS elementary school will take off in the next few years and the most gentrified Ward 6 elementary schools will suffer as a result. Nothing to be done: the pols won't give a hoot. [/quote] lol No one is going to choose BASIS over Mann or Key or Stoddert[/quote] Not true. Our family is actually at BASIS (a Cardozo feeder so an easy choice for us) and there are many families from Hardy feeders here.[/quote] The Hardy and Deal zoned families seem like some of the most "BASIS"-y (highly academic) kids, because they are actively choosing this over a great option for typical kids (as opposed to the rest of us in Shaw/Capitol Hill, where some families choose it just to have a decent middle/high path, but the kids find it a bad fit).[/quote] BASIS makes it very public who the top of the class is. Lots of Capitol Hill kids in that group. [/quote]. Yes, that's not quite what I'm saying. Of the kids who come from Capitol Hill and other non-ward 3 neighborhoods , some are very BASISy, and some kids are not and hate it. But of the families actively choosing BASIS over Hardy and Deal, most of those kids are BASISy. [/quote]
