[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My sentiments exactly, though you expressed them better than I would have. The Ivy League alum interviewer sounded surprised that most the BASIS Tuscon applicants he or she met seemed robotic. I'm not. Noticed how parents of 5th graders have all the answers half a school year in? What I hear is "[b]WE LOVE OUR DOWNTOWN LIFESTYLE SO MUCH THAT BASIS IS WORKING BRILLIANTLY FOR US AND WILL KEEP ON WORKING BRILLIANTLY AS LONG AS WE SAY IT IS." [/b] I went to an Ivy, as did my two older siblings, as have several of their children, all of us grads of small town public schools, contrarians who avoid multiple choice tests where possible, voracious readers and inveterate travelers/backpackers. Too bad that the "ordinary" education system in the District past ES is, for the most part, is scary. [/quote] Ummm, no. That is not what I say at least or others. We plan on staying in DC since we love it, and I know that I will [b]always[/b] have other options besides DCPS for my DC if Basis were not to work out. So far, Basis has been great and it seems to me it will continue that way! [/quote] Hear, hear! +1[/quote]
