If I could give this school zero stars, I would. Everyone told me that BASIS had the best curriculum, so I registered my son for kindergarten eight months in advance and was thrilled when he was accepted. However, my excitement quickly turned into disappointment. The school was a disaster—completely disorganized with a chaotic staff. On the first day, they lost my child, which sent me into a panic. A few days later, he came home with his shorts cut up by another student who had access to the teacher's scissors. Worse still, no one seemed to be watching over him, as he got lost every time he walked back from lunch. To make matters worse, there were 34 students crammed into his class, and the pick-up and drop-off line took 50 minutes every single time. The overall experience was so terrible that I withdrew him from the school after just two weeks.

I send my daughter to this school because despite difficulties with teacher turnover, she is learning above and beyond what she would in any other school. There have been some great teachers and I imagine the school will only continue to improve.

this basis school's location is pretty much living on past glory, they have not been able to keep up with the standard that they started with, teachers are rude and yell at students up to their head of school, they only have really few good teachers left.so so unfortunate
