BASIS.ED

BASIS Schools educate students at an internationally competitive level, with BASIS students ready to compete with their top-performing peers in Finland, Korea, or China. BASIS Tucson North and BASIS Scottsdale fifteen-year-old students proved this in their 2012 results on the OECD Test For Schools. These results place the BASIS Model above the acclaimed Finnish and Korean education systems, and on par with Shanghai, the world's best. The BASIS Model is built and managed by BASIS.ed and employs the BASIS Culture across all campuses, to utilize the same BASIS.ed Curriculum in the classroom environment. The culture-plus-curriculum building blocks are conducive to instilling in students a lifelong love and respect for knowledge, to understanding the importance of hard work and self-reliance as a path towards success, and to the discovery of individual strengths to be able to invent, design and apply.
