[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well, it's only 14 kids, so hard to really draw any conclusions. 
But as a Wilson parent who has been listening to my neighbors who are Basis parents go on and on and on about how superior Basis is, I would have expected a better list than this.

Really?  For 14 kids you expected more?  And the school is less than 10 years old.  Meanwhile half of Wilson students are not even on track to graduate.

Lady, you are not expecting better from BASIS.  You are not-so-secretly enraged that you overpaid for an unrenovated, ugly, front hall colonial in Wilson's catchment and no-one is impressed.  Sorry you made a stupid real estate decision, but BASIS did well.

** NOT affiliated with BASIS, Wilson, the PCSB or DCPS.  No axe to grind, no dog in the hunt.  I just like popping the balloons of the self-important.[/quote]

I'm the PP.  Just for the record, I'm not a lady, and I did not overpay for my home in Wilson's catchment - that actually turned out to be the best investment I've ever made in my life.

I'm  not enraged about anything - I'm just observing that Basis parents talk about the school like it is an otherworldly college prep school - and, based on this list, it is just like any other school.
