[quote=Anonymous]What makes you think that shaming parents who don't have "academically advanced and motivated" kids to cease and desist from taking a BASIS 5th grade spot, perhaps compelling them to move to the burbs for lack of a viable alternative, will work? Fact is, BASIS is geared to the average to above average student willing to put the work in to cope with the curriculum. It's not a GT program by any stretch of the imagination. Moreover, some BASIS 5th grade families are just looking for a viable place-holder before moving on to a more typical middle school, perhaps out of DC. That's their prerogative of course. Why not focus on what's likely to make your own kid happy rather than offering us all unsolicited advice?[/quote]
