My experience at Basis Goodyear is one mostly centered on academics. Basis Goodyear is a good school if your main concern is academic achievement and college preparedness. The small size of the school also means that you get very attached to your classmates. It does lack some extracurricular activities and sports events, so if that is your thing, it is not a best school out there. If you want the best education in Goodyear in terms of STEM, then it is a great choice.

BASIS is a great school curriculum wise. It's very challenging though and can be extremely tough for some people.

I really like how Basis Goodyear prepares all its students for college extremely well with rigorous courses and many college credits. Basis Goodyear offers AP courses as well as tests, which can also transfer into college credits. Something I would like to see improved at this school is the sports and clubs. The school is very focused on academics, and sometimes students find it lacking in social events.
