[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yea, but you have to get the kids to the activities outside of school, and pay for them, hardly ideal. We haven't found a wealth of college application worthy extra-curriculars at BASIS. As for the new HOS, his profile sounds too much like the last couple for comfort. These young Arizona admins come in on a steep learning curve because they don't know DC schools politics, aren't used to educating the struggling products of weak DCPS schooling (especially SN kids), aren't accostomed to the school's unusual demographics, and don't know the brutal Metro area college application pool. They also don't have the budget to hire older, experienced teachers, admins or a college counselor. So they stumble and get replaced. Good luck to him.
