[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]After a few years at BASIS it will become a disincentive to leave, as they will likely be ahead of the corresponding grade level of the school they would be leaving for. They'd be twiddling their thumbs while the teacher goes over material they learned already.[/quote] At the best NW privates? TJ? The Blair magnets? So the only other schools kids can head to are DC public schools? TJ gets half a dozen kids into each Ivy every year and a dozen to MIT. BASIS will be sending kids where, to STEM PhD programs? BASIS AZ schools don't even compete in INTEL. My nephew is on track to take no less than 11 AP exams at TJ, where he also plays 2 varsity sports and competes in INTEL for astronomy. Your over the top boosterism must have some sort of shelf life. [/quote]
