List of 6 items.

• An Engaging Education Is a Joyful One

  Learning expands far beyond the desk. We work hard, build confidence, and explore many subjects to spark and foster a lifelong love of learning. Classes engage young minds in and outside the classroom with group activities, knowledge- and skills-based learning, Innovation Lab, field trips, and outdoor excursions.

• Class Size and Community Matter

  Children are seen, known, understood and appreciated by each of their teachers at BCD. Our commitment to small class sizes (maximum of 18) allows us to forge personal relationships with every family and focus on each child’s individual strengths and challenges. These bonds then extend to create a community of families where parents and guardians are welcome in our school to partner with teachers as we support our students together.

• Curiosity Is Invaluable

  Children are naturally curious and seek to make connections between their own world and what they are learning. BCD takes an intentional approach to each day and each lesson to encourage resourcefulness and exploration.

• Every Learning Style Is Different

  Every child is unique, and so are the ways they learn. In an effort to support the wide variety of learning styles within BCD, our Learning Center sets BCD Elementary School in a class of its own with a dedicated faculty whose mission is to help our teachers differentiate instruction, tailor strategies, and create goals to maximize each child’s academic potential.

• Good Citizens Grow Here

  BCD is an inclusive, well-rounded environment that invites every child to discover their own excellence—both academically and beyond. We believe that the social and emotional growth of a child is just as important as their scholastic achievements, so we encourage students to learn who they are, be themselves, and feel supported as active, honest members of their communities.

• Life Skills Are School Skills

  Kindness and respect are essential to creating an environment where students feel safe and empowered to take risks. As such, BCD Elementary School passionately integrates evidence-based Responsive Classroom and Kid Power programs into our curriculum to support character development and enhance every child’s education. From contributing to a positive community and resolving conflicts to effective communication, empathy and problem solving, BCD is home to social and emotional skills at every level.
