Second largest school district in the nation, LAUSD enrolls 640,000+ students in kindergarten through 12th grade, at over 900 schools, and 187 public charter schools. The boundaries spread over 720 square miles and include the mega-city of Los Angeles as well as all or parts of 31 smaller municipalities plus several unincorporated sections of Southern California. The mission of LAUSD is reflected in continued double-digit growth on the state Academic Performance Index (API); the upward trend in the graduation rate, progress in the pass rate on the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE) and other academic indicators. LA schools boast more winners of the United States Academic Decathlon championships-12-than any other District in this country. Add to those impressive victories, outstanding individual student and team achievements in: science, mathematics, social studies, language arts, foreign and dual languages, business and entrepreneurial skills, the visual and performing arts, and athletics. Nationally recognized by the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine for serving healthy, low fat and vegetarian school lunches. LAUSD`s standards also call for: whole grains, low sodium, locally grown fruits and vegetables and no trans fat; flavored milk or carbonated beverages. Today, the District counts more than 115 new schools and campuses, thanks to the nation`s largest public works project, funded by bond measures, a testament to broad voter support.

BASIS was founded on the belief that every child deserves an opportunity to excel academically, and that every child can. We believe the classroom is sacrosanct, and the student-teacher interaction the essential educational activity. We believe in a rigorous, accelerated curriculum, student accountability at all levels, and teachers who are experts in their subject matter, and passionate about teaching it. We believe in instilling in our students a life-long love of knowledge, for its own sake. The overwhelming success and recognition of the first two BASIS Schools in Tucson and Scottsdale demonstrates that these principles, combined with hard work and persistence, could help revolutionize American education. BASIS students are not selected in a demanding admissions process, unlike elite public magnet, fine independent and top-performing international schools to which we are compared. They become BASIS students in the classrooms, inspired by great teachers and greater expectations for what they can achieve. BASIS.ed now manages 12 BASIS Charter schools, expanding from Arizona to Texas and the District of Columbia. The following pages show how a great concept could grow to fruition in a dozen schools, serving 7,500 students, and how it can expand throughout the country. We hope you explore more about the BASIS educational program, and the opportunity it provides to place American students back at the top when compared to their international peers.
