[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i dont think the charter board would necessarily approve basis in dc today.  they obtain a high achieving student body using their particular branding and an up or out model to discourage lots of students from enrolling.  id maybe like to see dcps open some kind of citywide magnet middle in a eotp location like that is pretty easy to get to from east of the river.[/quote]

Parent of very happy BASIS kids here. I am certain PCSB would not approve BASIS in the current "performative equity" environment. [/quote]

In fact, under the PCSB's new proposed model for quality, BASIS is the only high school to make the top cut and one of only a handful of schools of any grade spanns (elem/middle/high) to make it. So they probably could get approved if interested in expanding. What's going to shock families with what the PCSB is doing is when you find out that many of the other schools preferred here (including some mentioned in this thread) don't make the cut.[/quote]

They already applied for an elementary school and were turned down.[/quote]
