The educational experience at Basis DC is unmatched within its region. I could not feel more prepared for college at this point. I've been given a vast array of opportunity here at basis DC. From available academic and physical electives and extracurriculars you are always bein challenged to do your best. Always striving to do better

This is our first year at Basis and our daughter is so far loving it and we are nothing but impressed with what we've seen so far. She really enjoys the class material and her teachers and is just thriving. Initially, we were worried about the homework being too much but a month into school and our daughter already has gotten down the routine. Also, they have study hall during school each day where they can get a head start on their homework.

On paper, it looks like the perfect school — high test scores, a reputation for academic achievement, and a co...

As a current Basis student, I think it's a good school. BUT the downsides are pretty harsh. One if you miss just a few days, the work piles up like Jeff Bezos Money. It's outrageous how much work there is, since the classes are mostly busy; there is not much time to do homework especially in the upp...
