It has an excellent program with a unique approach to teaching, which allows students to learn by doing. There is plenty of liberty for the students but it is not to the extent that there are no instructions given. Additionally, the principal of this school is extremely friendly and accommodating; accordingly, I would highly recommend it. more ... hide ...

Now in seventh grade, however, the school is taking a turn for the worse. One student has been setting bad examples and even selling drugs - this is the only issue I've experienced outside of strict dress code regulations. more ... hide ...

I am giving the school one star due to a personal experience I had there. My son was in Ms Griffin's class, and I had to pick him up early because my father-in-law was having surgery and none of us could take him back the next day. Ms Griffin often complained about my son not listening, but instead of contacting us when he returned she called Child Services on us as we were 4/5 months pregnant and getting very little sleep. Thankfully, the case was shut down as no abandonment or negligent issues were present, but at the time it felt like our son would be taken away from us due to her meddling where she shouldn't have been. This caused me great distress and anxiety; all I could do in shock was cry and shake uncontrollably. more ... hide ...

They have software tools to aid in teaching and tracking students' progress. The teacher is making an effort to educate kids through the portal, but I'm unsure of how well they are connecting with the kids. Kindergarten focuses on math, science, English, and moral values; so far my experience has been positive. After completing a full school year, I fully stand by my initial opinion that this school does an admirable job with their students - you can observe the maturity in them due to proper discipline being instilled by their kindergarten teachers. more ... hide ...

This school is a complete disaster. The administration consistently fails to enforce their own rules, and the amount of cheating going on is deplorable. If you wish to send your child to a good school, do not consider BA This school is a complete disaster. The administration consistently fails to enforce their own rules, and the amount of cheating going on is deplorable. If you wish to send your child to a good school, do not consider BASIS Chandler as an option. For instance, during AP Exam week this year, teachers failed to uphold testing integrity by allowing students to pick their own seating--in direct violation of Collegeboard regulations--and thus all exams should have been cancelled due to improper seating arrangements. This is only a minuscule example of how BASIS Chandler has become corrupted and distorted in its structure and operations. In 2016, one popular basketball player was found with alcohol on school grounds yet received minimal punishment in order for the school's image not to be tarnished; meanwhile, another student who wasn't particularly favored by staff got suspended for cheating on an exam despite having poor grades. To avoid future students from having their lives ruined by this horrid institution, please make sure BASIS Chandler isn't chosen and opt for another educational facility instead. more ... hide ...
