Campus Voices
Each month, The Link visits BB&N's three campuses to hear directly from directors or teachers about what's on their minds. We share their letters below.

Lower School

We are off and running toward another wonderful year at the Lower School. With the beautiful summer-like weather, the children enjoyed a festive welcome back picnic as well as many opportunities to play outdoors. These events, along with the welcoming classrooms our teachers prepared, have launched us into the first semester. When I was teaching, fall was always my favorite time of the school year. Everything was fresh and new. More

It is a wonderful addition, one that will make a special contribution to the sense of community we are building at BB&N. More

In this issue of The Link, each of the campus directors joins me in sharing their insights and observations on these first few days. More
