WELCOME TO BASIS AHWATUKEE - OPENING AUGUST 2013

BASIS Ahwatukee will open its doors to 650 students in grades 5 through 10, in August 2013 and move up a grade each year thereafter. It will offer the same rigorous academic program as our legacy schools, BASIS Scottsdale and BASIS Tucson, and at the same time take into account the previous educational background of all incoming students.

BASIS introduces Latin, general science and physical geography in the 5th gradethen physics, chemistry and biology in the 6th. 7th graders have the opportunity to study Mandarin, French or Spanish, while 8th graders take Economics. In time, we will offer all students Honors, AP and Post AP level classes in the high school grades.

We know from experience that every student can excel if they are willing to work hard and seek help from our teachers. The teachers we recruit have deep content knowledge, are passionate about what they teach, and are willing to do whatever it takes to make your child successful.

Interested in finding out more? Write to us now, because deciding to send your student to BASIS Ahwatukee will probably be one of the best choices you will ever make.

**Please note that those who have already handed in a registration packet will be invited to attend forthcoming meetings to hear our plans for the new school.
