[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]According to the email, 34% of all the applications BASIS receives are from at-risk students suggests that these families want to go to BASIS. Maybe Latin has a much lower percentage overall.[/quote] Oddly it's about the same for middle school but a lot higher for high school at Latin. 19%.[/quote] Might be the rich kids peeling off to private HS or Walls[/quote] Yeah, I don't think that's odd at all. Latin is a great environment (contra BASIS), but it's academics aren't great. Lots of UMC parents go there intending to move their kid to private or Walls or suburbia for 9th. It's actually part of the reason the Latin college admissions aren't as good as you think when you look at your kid's 5th grade Latin class; it's because the chunk that leaves pre-9th is decidedly not random.[/quote]
