[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you look at the USN&WR top 100 public high schools in the [i]entire[/i] United States, Basis has 10 of the top 100 (10%). Basis DC, which only opened 11 years ago, is now ranked the #1 public middle school in DC, the #1 charter school in DC, and the #1 non-selective high school in DC. Once they open a K-4, within a decade, Basis DC will be the top public public elementary school in the city. [/quote] This is true. It's also true that they have significant teacher turnover and hiring problems. Things are much better this year than last year, but it's far from perfect. It's also true that Basis has much lower share of poor students than other DC schools. - Basis parent who likes the school but isn't blind to its shortcomings or to the fact that its success is due in large part to its demographic advantages.[/quote]
