[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ And all of this is ultimately a DCPS failure, because parents will be picking the school for the MS feed, not because they actually prefer it to some of their Hill DCPS options for ES.[/quote]

Gee, maybe parents actually want BASIS for K-4?

Every BASIS school in the world except for the one in DC includes K-4.  There is no logical reason for opposing expansion here.[/quote]

The point is that people will switch because they want the MS feed. If BASIS ES didn’t feed to BASIS MS, it would have an entirely different population. I’d be totally fine with that. If you really think people want BASIS ES, then that seems like the perfect solution.

Reality check: Very few parents actually want a factory model with no parent input in an office building over Maury, Brent or Ludlow. If they choose it, it’ll be for the MS feed. If BASIS fills its entire/a substantial portion of its MS from its ES, the MS situation on the Hill is about to get desperate. You’ll see some parents lottery in K and others trying to get attrition spots in 3rd and 4th to beat the 5th rush. [/quote]
