[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Give us a break, it's the rare BASIS junior who's taken a dozen AP courses and exams. Few BASIS seniors bother with more APs. PP above obviously meant anywhere where many AP or IB Diploma classes are taught to a high standard to a high-achieving cohort. [/quote] But the point is that there are very few places like that in DC! JR (which you have to be in bounds for), Walls and Banneker (which you have to apply to, with no guarantee of admission), a couple of charters (again, no guarantee), and then privates (expensive and no guarantee). As I and many other Basis parents have said, it's not perfect, just that it's the best of the options available, and overall a pretty decent option for many kids.[/quote] So, the rest of us have to pay for the fact that you didn't want to live in-boundary or send your kid to private? Also, if your kid is taking 12 APs, they're going to get money to go to a private.[/quote]
