[quote=Anonymous]Not surprised to hear any of this, PP. The joyless cave of a building is super stressful for kids. Plus the curriculum isn't implemented well. The main problem is that BASIS doesn't really ability group for anything but math in the middle school. The result is that half the kids can't really handle the work but are left in class with kids who can for most of the day. No wonder kids act out. We left BASIS 3.5 years in. My wise guy kid's behavior improved dramatically after we put him in a school with playing fields, expanses of green, and a strong sport and exercise program. For starters, Garrett needs to do more to get the kids outside seeing the sky and breathing fresh air, a lot more. Good luck everybody who's stayed.[/quote]
