[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] We have a 6th grader there who is drowning under the homework. Sometimes it takes him 3-4 hours a night. And he is not the only one. Anecdotally, other parents have expressed similar concerns.[/quote] Former Basis parent here. If your child is drowning under the homework, run don't walk away from Basis. We left after 6th grade and my main regret is that we waited that long to leave. It's an insane amount of work for 11 year olds. My child did horribly on the comp and when we were given the material he needed to work on over the summer in order to be promoted, I knew it was time to leave and we couldn't be happier with our decision. Some kids excel in that kind of environment but Basis is not for every kid and it sounds like it is not the best place for your kid. Good luck.[/quote]
