About the Company
BASIS was founded on the belief that every child deserves an opportunity to excel academically, and that every child can. We believe the classroom is sacrosanct, and the student-teacher interaction the essential educational activity. We believe in a rigorous, accelerated curriculum, student accountability at all levels, and teachers who are experts in their subject matter, and passionate about teaching it. We believe in instilling in our students a life-long love of knowledge, for its own sake. The overwhelming success and recognition of the first two BASIS Schools in Tucson and Scottsdale demonstrates that these principles, combined with hard work and persistence, could help revolutionize American education. BASIS students are not selected in a demanding admissions process, unlike elite public magnet, fine independent and top-performing international schools to which we are compared. They become BASIS students in the classrooms, inspired by great teachers and greater expectations for what they can achieve. BASIS.ed now manages 12 BASIS Charter schools, expanding from Arizona to Texas and the District of Columbia. The following pages show how a great concept could grow to fruition in a dozen schools, serving 7,500 students, and how it can expand throughout the country. We hope you explore more about the BASIS educational program, and the opportunity it provides to place American students back at the top when compared to their international peers.
