[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] While parents are trying to maneuver the legal channels, rules and regulations to insure BASIS follows FAPE, IDEA to serve students with 504's and IEP's, they are missing a crucial point. This school operates on a completely different premise. Do not waste your time or money or sanity if the school is mistreating you and your child. I mean your kid can be a genius and still fail at BASIS. Everything is hush hush with no transparency. All these years they kept on boasting about their results and how they are providing a world class education. Let's forget about college acceptances. Being number crunchers, I am wondering why they are being so secretive about their SAT/ACT results. We heard that several students scored below 1000 in the SAT from students who were taking the ACT, not offered at the school. Also, you would think that  a senior with a 4.4 GPA with raving recommendations from the school, "4"s and "5"s on 10  AP exams should score fairly high on any standardized test. However [b]it the aforementioned student scores in the lowest 25%, in math, [/b]you can't help but wonder about where the truth lies.[/quote]

How is that possible?  Aren't the AP's graded by outsiders?  (No affiliation with with school, no reason to collude.)[/quote]
