BCCDS was the worst school I have ever attended. I've attended 5 different schools, BCCDS being my longest stay. The building itself has obvious issues that never seem to be focused on. Throughout my stay, teachers were very prone to picking favorites, and often had conflict with eachother within the

For some students the quick paced program works beautifully. For others not so fortunate, teachers are very discouraging and the obvious intellectual seperation can also be very unmotivating for the learning child. Pushing a student to do their best is great, but BCCDS pushes some of their students to the point of humiliation rather than success. I left BCCDS for various reasons. As a former student, I urge you to consider my opinion. Read less

Also, the art teacher uses all kinds of mediums to teach art and really expands my children's love of art.

I cannot emphasize enough the importance I place on BCCDS School's teaching my child using a 'progress at your own pace' method. We spend a good deal of time teaching our child at home and instilled in him the importance of learning and that learning can and is fun. Without this same philosophy at
