BASIS Phoenix, Phoenix | Fees, Rankings, Address, Admission, Vacancies, Reviews & More

One of the best decisions we took when he was in 6th Grade. He is a senior now and we see the progression in him. As we are applying for the colleges we can see the impact of being at BASIS. The AP classes, the capstones, the Senior Year Projects, the Honor Courses, Sports etc. you name it. It is all there. A 4.0 GPA in a regular High School stands nothing close to a 3.5 of BASIS. The colleges look at the overall personality not just scores, they look at what classes and courses you took, how rigorous was the curriculum. One thing for sure BASIS is not for everyone, the students and their parents have to be committed and it is not easy to sail through BASIS this why many leave in the middle. We worked with the teachers, took the student support to get him back on track. He may not be in the top 2% of the class but his scores in the Standardized tests, school, AP, extra curricular etc. have already started getting him LOAs and scholarship calls. BASIS did have ups and down in 2017-18 but things have settled down now. The quality of college counselling we are getting for the Seniors this year is remarkable. It is being manged very professionally now, their road map and structure is outstanding. Adding in here, the teachers are phenomenon, in last 6 years we interacted with many and all are gems. We are so proud for what our son has accomplished here. He is College ready already. Very important is the parents get involved with the school and work out a plan early.

Keep up the good work BASIS Phoenix. You are doing a GREAT JOB !

Definitely not for the faint of heart or the unmotivated. You have to have a strong work ethic and be willing to sacrifice part of your typical social life to endless hours of homework and studying, but it pays off in the end. I just graduated high-school and already have two years of college thanks to the Basis-College-Bound-Mentality. Plus, the smaller class sizes in high school make for a fun, tight-knit community where everyone knows everyone else. Shout out to Class of 2015: Go Firebirds!!

I have been going to basis for 3 years and am starting my fourth year. I love everything about this school but it definitely isn’t for everyone. If your looking for a challenging and rewarding school than I recommend basis. There are all sorts of people and I’ve met some great friends there. There’s undoubtedly a stereotype that all the kids spend all their time studying but that’s not true for everyone there. If you work hard, and really put in an effort then you’ll prosper!!
