Developing understanding, not simply memorizing; instilling a passion for lifelong learning
We want our students to engage deeply with curricular content, not merely memorize it. Our students strive for academic success while celebrating their innate curiosity for learning and discovery. Our academic program is broad and rightly challenging. We measure the value added to each student’s academic achievement through a process of independent baseline testing.
At BVS, we believe that every student has the potential to be a high performer, and our holistic curriculum enables students to develop the necessary academic skills, passions, curiosity, and personal qualities needed for lifelong learning.
