[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]BASIS clearly needs more competition for the strongest DC public school middle school students. Without any test-in/GT MS programs in the city, comparable rigor is impossible to find, particularly for math and science, even at Deal. [/quote] Please help me understand this picture. BASIS is rigorous in every subject. Every student get above grade level instruction in math and English. Biology, chemistry and physics is given to every middle school student for three years. After all this, students who reach 9th grade are unable to pass the AP exams (4th year doing the same science) and may not graduate. There are two logical explanations here -- either the students are not understanding the advanced concepts taught throughout all these years or instruction is not as advanced as the school is claiming to be.
