[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the end of the day, every school has its pros and cons. I don't like the IB curriculum so I didn't want DCI, and I'm not a fan of "Classical/Latin" education so I didn't want Latin. I do like the BASIS model, even though many hate it, so I lotteried for it and my child got a seat, and has been happy. She is now at the BASIS high school.

The real problem here is that there are not enough seats to guarantee that a person gets the type of education they want. I lucked out. I would have been unhappy if my kid had to go to DCI or Latin. Lucky for me they didn't, but that is why you see so many posts like this.[/quote]

Basis has seats but refuses to backfill them. If they offer so much support as described above, why can’t they backfill and provide that support to new students? In a system with so few opportunities for bright kids, esp those “far from opportunity,” why doesn’t Basis even try?

You obviously didn’t read this thread.

They aren’t allowed to backfill in DC.

Please educate yourself before posting.[/quote]
