[quote=Anonymous]This. I'm weary of BASIS snobbery about traditional public schools in this city not offering challenge, a rich curriculum or strong teaching simply because they're DCPS schools. Parents are starting to see better leadership along with a critical mass of well prepared students in honors classes at Hardy and Hobson. As a result, to those of us living a very short walk from IB buildings, a handful of DCPS middle schools are increasingly attractive. We didn't take our BASIS 5th grade spot after touring the depressing building and being told that our bilingual child would be forced to study Latin in 5th and 6th along along with another language from 7th grade (two languages are more than enough for us). To those of you who've taken a BASIS spot, or will, good luck to your families.[/quote]
