August 3rd marked the official ribbon cutting ceremony for the OV’s new charter school, BASIS. Newsweek recently compiled their annual list of Americas top schools. Just over 1.600 schools—only 6 percent of all the public schools in the U.S.—made the list. Number SIX on that elite list was BASIS!!! WOW!
BASIS Tucson was the only Arizona high school with 100% of its students meeting or exceeding state standards on all subjects - mathematics, science, reading, and writing - of the state’s mandated high school exit exams, the Arizona Instrument to Measure Standards (AIMS). Here is a quick picture we snapped of the new school near completion. Click here to go to the BASIS Oro Valley website.
