Why I Chose BC
When I visited I could tell how close the whole community was, and how much the students enjoyed being at school. I thought it was a really good size as well, especially coming from a small school. I could also tell that the students felt independent, being able to pick classes and clubs, but also supported.
My BC is...
supportive. Everyone, teachers and students, have been encouraging me to do my best since 9th grade. Everyone wants to see each other do well, not just academically, and everyone is really always there for each other. BC has created an environment that allows students to feel comfortable reaching out to each other and to teachers.
