[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous](1) I don't see Washington Latin, Deal or Two Rivers in your mess BASIS DC.

(2) The fact is three Heads of School in one year.  First Mary way before the beginning of school, then BASIS decided for Paul (who was a disaster) right before the start and then decided for Sean before the end of the year.

[b](3) BASIS DC's excuse that blacks leave because they can't handle the "rigorous" curriculum is BS.  It's called pretext for racism.  If you want a kid to succeed you'll find the way.  Remember they're the kid and your the adult. [/b]

(4) The PSCB was explicit about BASIS DC.  Want proof.  Here it is:

(5) Fact. Community meeting was a disaster.  Complaints about Head of School dismissing emails, lack of stability ( 3 heads of school), highly unprofessional about Teacher departures ( parent learn through kids), complaints about no school counselor, complaints about no plans for athletics, complaints about lack of school culture.

(6) The Head of School was one incompetent fellow.  Need proof, read  WP what he said to PSCB about wanting to expand.

It's not bashing just the truth.  [/quote]

That's just a ridiculous statement. You can provide the best environment and the best tools and the best teaching and still some kids will not succeed.  The kids have to be willing to make the effort.

It's not about race as much as it is SES. [/quote]
