[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've seen a lot of mean-sprited anti-Basis stuff on this message board, but I haven't seen anything beyond that - the Basis parents, staff and kids I've met and dealt with have all been wonderful.[/quote] Yea but not so wonderful to take kids who obviously won't be able to handle a GT curriculum with the intention of culling them in a year or two. Kinder not to take them. DC Charter refuses to take the aptitude bull by the horns. Soon, Basis will have a long waiting list, like Latin did from March to July this year, with GT kids on it while slow kids are admitted, then weeded out. Fantastic policy. [/quote] Who ever said anything about taking kids "who obviously won't be able to handle" the curriculum, or "the intention of culling them"? With respect to admissions and who attends, they aren't doing anything different than any other charter.[/quote]
