I'm a student at BSS and I've been attending since Pre-K. This school is absolutely amazing. All of the teachers are spectacular, but there are a few teachers that are mean. One in particular. I won't say any names, though. The teachers are only doing what's best for your kids, though. Really. The school

My child attended B.S.and after a few years, I decided it was time for a change for several reasons. I agree w/the previous parent about an upgrade in math and science. I also agree w/the parent in reference to fundraising and the pressure to raise funds to stem off higher tuition. However, tuition

I've noticed on quite a few occasions where it was obvious that a child was performing above a particular level and they never made it to the honor roll. I was surpried to see such a large kindergarten class of 35 when most of the children continue to 8th grade. I absolutely loved how they had the buddy system between the lower and upper class. Teachers are OK. I definitely preferred the previous principal over Mrs. Spencer. Read less
