School Reviews

5 3/5/2015

One of the best experiences of my life! Socially, I met some of my best friends at BG. Academically, I was challenged and supported. They teach students to be self-advocates, and are, in turn, approachable and willing to help. The classes were interesting, and the faculty were engaging. I was prepared for college in so many ways; far beyond my peers from other high schools. BG is a special place! It truly is a family. I thank my parents for making the sacrifice to send me to BG!
