anne: My son, who is 18 years old and now a senior at Fusion, just finished his Junior year there. This is a big deal because he was in terrible mental shape not long ago. He would need a new style of teaching, one that would ease him back into learning, attending class, making friends, and lastly, creating supportive connections with his teachers and peers. When my husband found The Dorm in Washington, DC, to continue his mental health treatment, they encouraged us to reach out to Fusion Academy. They explained that with Fusion’s 1:1 ratio, he would have the most amount of support, while still getting exposure to that all important social life with other students. (This was something our son desperately wanted, which is why we would not consider him learning from home remotely, on-line, any longer.) His time started well at Fusion, he made friends and really liked his teachers. He grew more confident that he could manage his class schedule and make it to class on time. He learned how to navigate the city, have some fun, and also keep up with his studies. His grades slipped at a mid point, he was not following through on assignments. Fusion Academy reached out to us, and The Dorm, to let us know the situation. Because I and his dad get the ‘Daily Notes’ from his teachers on his progress, we were aware of his decline before they even needed to reach out. His teachers, with Fusion’s director leading the charge, empathetically but firmly got him grounded again, making it clear that just because life can get a bit tough or busy, he had to learn to reach out for help, finish all missing assignments, and keep his promises towards his teachers. He learned to better manage his time, the work/life balance, yet also find ways to be social, caring, and connected. His teachers have been one of the BEST driving forces in his transformation. He deeply respects them. He enjoys his classes. He wants to succeed. He also doesn’t want to slide back into video gaming, which is why he prefers not using a computer, but using his smart phone. Dad and I are very proud of the choices he is making on a daily basis. He has to mange himself, something he has always struggled with. His teachers guide him daily, hourly if necessary. The shear amount of attention he gets from his lead advisor, his teachers, and the school, is unbelievable. He knows deep in his bones he is accepted for WHO HE IS. HE KNOWS HEIS ENOUGH. A work in progress. (As we all are!) Thank you so very much for shepherding him along on all the many challenges he has faced and will continue to face. Each obstacle he overcomes further builds his experience level and confidence.

Matthew Huggins: We have been extremely happy with Fusion Academy DC for our daughter, who attended for grades 7 and 8. At Fusion, our daughter’s teachers understood her intellect, challenged her with extra assignments, and worked with her as a unique individual. They recognized her as a person with unique and valued gifts and talents and way of seeing the world, and helped her develop those gifts and talents further. Fusion DC allowed her to grow intellectually and academically, while also having the opportunity to make friendships in a kinder setting. In our experience, Fusion is a 100% no-tease zone, and that is just what our daughter needed – an environment where the other kids were open and accepting of her and one another, and where she could get the academic rigor that she and we were seeking. We have been very pleased with our experience at Fusion Academy DC.

Alison Hollis: I have never worked with such a compassionate and student-centered group of teachers. Our students come to Fusion because something about the traditional school system does not work for them, and our teachers make sure that those students- many of whom hate school- have a positive educational experience. When you walk down the hallways of our school, you hear laughter and high quality discussions. You see teachers creatively engaging students based on their interests and learning needs. If you want to work with educators who put students first or learn from teachers who center your ideas and needs, then Fusion DC would be a perfect fit.

Becky Sachs: We have been so happy with our experience at Fusion for our 12th grader and 7th grader. The teachers are wonderful and work hard to connect with students and make lessons meaningful. Both of my kids have been engaged in and excited by what they are learning. The experience has been great for them academically and for their confidence.

Crosby: My little brother went here this past year and I honestly think it saved his school experience. He had been struggling worn the traditional school model especially during the pandemic so we decided to pivot to Fusion and WOW is it great. Not only are the classes/ education very customizable, but the teachers are all so kind and more than willing to help when necessary. Would HIGHLY recommend to anyone. Thanks Fusion!

Gretel French: Working with Fusion D.C has been one of the most rewarding experiences in my life and career! I love how we customize for our all of our amazing stakeholders, so that we may all reach for the stars.

I AM READING COMPLAINTS ABOUT BULLING BUT I HAVE TO SAY THAT BULLYING IS EVERYWHERE AND YOU JUST CANT SAY THAT ITS AT THIS SCHOOL WHEN THIS A NATION WIDE THING. AND I HAVE NEVER HAD A PROBLEM THAT I COULD NOT BRING TO THE STAFF AND IT NOT BE RESOLVED OR DISCUSSED. FOR ALL PARENTS WHO WANT THERE KIDS TO BE CHALLENGED AND GROW THIS IS THE SCHOOL THAT YOU WANT YOUR CHILD TO ATTEND.

Bayoush Alemayhu: My son attended this school for a couple of months but I had pull him out this week. He has special needs and kids bullied him about that, kicking him. He is supposed to have an aide at all times but she did not protect him. No one took responsibility for that incident. Academically, the teacher has no control over the kids, hence no learning is taking place. Very upsetting and disappointing.

Sundai J: Washington Global is a wonderful school, From the Principle to the administers to the teachers . They all play a positive role in the scholars academic and achievement purpose. My child started from the beginning and I never doubted my choice. The class structure as I saw met the kids at there level and help them to progress were they should be. I am very satisfied with this school...

John Henry Waymack: I have been attending the school since it started. I am going into my sixth year now, and intend to stay until i graduate. The curriculum is very strenuous and is good preparation for college, that being said it is too much for many students and as a result, many students are forced to leave early. However, all students can get the help that they need, and all have a better chance at success here than at many public middle and high schools.

Ginger Boy: Basis is constantly working on improving there sports Teams and adding new options for people to do sports, the HW is hell but the education is well worth it, if you plan on going here then come to school with a productive mindset for it is easy to fall behind in class work and Grades.

Jay Ramirez: Great school. Great teachers and staff, and a lot of challenging work which benefits me in the long run.

Griffith Barton: Basis is a hard school, with no space in the building. I am a tenth grader and from my experience I know that basis has a high turnover, with most teachers leaving after 1-2 years. The Spanish department is a mess, with people my age having 6+ different Spanish teachers over the last 4 years. The other problem is the space, because we have close to 600 kids in this office building and we don’t have enough rooms to have one room per teacher and so during passing period we have all 560 kids and teachers out in the narrow halls. Then some people go the their lockers and make the hallways smaller, making corners and whole stretches of hallway packed full of kids and teachers trying to get to their rooms, making passing period chaotic. The other problem is the homework, because things like the math problem set can take hours to do, and that’s just one class, so when you add in all the extra stuff the workload takes 2-4 hours per day. The things I do appreciate about basis is that many of the staff like the deans and the lunch lady and the (one!!!!!) custodian are nice, the front office staff are helpful, and most of the rules are fair. I also enjoy outside lunch (for highschoolers only). I think if you are planning to send your child to basis you should send them in fifth grade and not as sixth graders to allow them to make their own decision on whether basis is right for them. Another reason to do this is because 5th grade is pretty chill, but it allows you to get used to math homework and the overall basis “style” of doing things.

Levan Taktakishvili: Great school so far, having 5th grader there. Gives so much more then other schools.

Yoshikazu Arakawa: my son goes to that school and is a gifted and talented kid. he got many awards.

Ryan Kellett: The teachers are what make this school really sing. This location is great - at the nexus of every Metro line making it easy to attract students from all over DC. The diversity of the student body should be a model for all.
