[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.instagram.com/bdc.2025/ Basis DC Instagram already shows 3 UPenn admits out of a class of about 40-44? [quote=Anonymous]I know two BASIS DC kids got in ED.[/quote][/quote] I’m sure those kids are very accomplished. That’s a great result! At the same time, how/why does a public charter school in a city of 700K have a graduating class of 40 kids? If a school’s denominator is tiny because only the highest achievers stick around through grade 12 (which has always been the case with Basis), its results *should* be stellar. But at some point it becomes a misnomer to call such a place a “public” school. [/quote] BASIS Parent here. Let’s maybe not take yet another opportunity to berate the school for its perceived failings. Please go to the DC Public and Charter School Board where you will find many threads on the school’s unique issues with attrition. Perhaps you are the same person who argues there that the school is not an open enrollment public charter. BASIS has 3 Penn admits in a class of 45ish. That is amazing by any measure, full stop.
