Colleges welcome BFS graduates because they are highly motivated, have demonstrated their capacity to work in a rigorous academic program, and have developed skills and study habits essential for success at college. Quaker Meeting for silent reflection and spiritual growth is an essential part of school community life. The school expects its members to uphold the Quaker values of mutual respect, honesty, simplicity, integrity, fairness, self discipline, peaceful resolution of conflict, and commitment to social justice. The school provides a challenging and creative learning environment that promotes academic excellence, builds leadership ability, and develops each student's personal and scholastic potential. Through the community service program, students acquire a broader knowledge of themselves, an understanding of community, social responsibility, and an appreciation of the inter-connectedness to global society.
Diversity is to be continually affirmed, celebrated, and strengthened within the school.
School and family should work in concert to educate the whole child. We are committed to meeting the scheduling needs of today's families. Go to Admissions . Go to Admissions tours .
