Testimonials
“I’m finding that students at BASIS are excited to be at BASIS. They are excited to learn. They’re ready to learn. They want to give their best effort. And that’s not something you’ll find everywhere.”
Michelle Lewis
Subject Expert Teacher, BASIS Baton Rouge Primary Mid City
“My students have hit a critical mass. They are not necessarily smarter than other students, but they are willing to work harder. They are competitive, but they challenge and support each other.”
TJ Peacher
Subject Expert Teacher, BASIS Scottsdale
“I worked in a public school for five years, and left because I felt frustrated. I was told to do things in my classroom that I did not feel were the best use of my students’ precious time. Today, my students are fully engaged in learning from bell to bell.”
Donna Merchant
Subject Expert Teacher, BASIS Tucson Primary
“The fact that we set such high expectations from the beginning and do not back down from them is one of the reasons why BASIS Charter Schools have been able to succeed. Students will always respond to the level of expectations you set for them. If you set low expectations, that’s all they will achieve. If you set a high bar, they will climb that high.”
Kevin Matthews
Subject Expert Teacher, BASIS Tucson North
“I like the kids here, I really do. We’ve got bright kids who work hard and are able to master advanced skills and abilities. They rise up quickly when they are instructed well and challenged.”
Ron Thrasher
