This school does a great job about covering all bases of academics but gears more towards math and science. If your child is more of an arts and literature student, this is not the school for them. That doesn't mean your child isn't smart or adequate enough for this school but why put them through the misery of attending a school where they don't enjoy learning? There are plenty of parents who have more than one child and may one have one or two enrolled at BASIS and the other(s) enrolled elsewhere. I love the LET teachers assigned in the lower levels, they really do a great job in assisting the kids in succeeding and the teachers and the deans are all great and caring towards the kids. This school is very anti-bullying which is another plus for this parent.

We have been so happy with Mile High. My daughter has been challenged academically, having the…read moreopportunity to take high school math in both 7th and 8th grades. She has been given opportunities and been encouraged to think critically, to develop her own opinions of history, science and the world and to have meaningful discussions in her classes. The elective offerings are incredible and the teachers who teach them are top notch! My child was forging and welding BBQ tools in 7th grade! The choirs and bands are among the best in the region! Furthermore, I love that the teachers encourage their student to take responsibility for their academic success, they are expected to ask for homework in advance if they know they will be gone, or to make up homework in a timely manner, or to even set up tutoring sessions, NOT the parents. I so appreciate that MH teachers are not just focused on academics, but on helping students develop critical life skills and, above all, on helping them be confident, good humans.
