[quote=Anonymous]Right - all of Basis’ deficiencies are really reflection of the overall lack of solid middle school options in DC. But it really is the best available option for many families, especially as a middle school way station before high school elsewhere. And there is good evidence that private high schools respect the caliber of students coming out of Basis. And if you’re at an immersion you like (good!), but you have the DCI option that many other families don’t + the serious investment in language study that you don’t want to go to waste, whereas most families are coming from schools with only so-so language instruction and aren’t losing much with the delay to 8th grade.[/quote]
