[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Going back to the original question of this thread:
Seems like the preparation for 5th grade students is minimal compared to the preparation the 5th grade parents need to constantly defend their decision to go to BASIS.  But in all seriousness, I have heard that in addition to “boss camp” over the summer, the students can attend a weekend retreat in the fall to further acclimate.  I have also heard that students can attend lots of office hours outside of the school day to feel better prepared with any material they are confused about.  From the many posts I have read and current BASIS families I have spoken to, it seems important to figure out the weaknesses early and address them so a student doesn’t fall behind and get overwhelmed.[/quote]

No worries.  Just ignore the handful of BASIS haters on DCUM that like to fill up any BASIS DC thread with their misinformed comments on computer labs, cooking classes, Arizona schools, and the like.

Grow up. All the comments aren't misinformed. All the criticism isn't misplaced and doesn't stem from envy.

We were glad to leave for Walls even though my oldest did well on AP Cal and World History in....8th grade. I really like how Walls is run by older adults.[/quote]

Funny. Every parent I know from Walls says the weakest part of the school is the faculty and administration. [/quote]
