PNSC (Parent Network to Support Students of Color)
The mission of PNSC is to improve the quality of the educational
experience at BB&N for students of color through support of continued
recruitment of students and faculty of color. PNSC assists in the
development of educational programs specifically relevant to their
experiences. They participate in fund-raising activities and serve as both
a support group for students and a resource/advisory group to the School
as well. PNSC has monthly meetings at the US and the LS. For more
information, contact
Joyce Allen-Beckford, Assistant Director of Multicultural Services
(617-800-2443).
CGSA (Community Gay Straight Alliance)
The group was established to promote community respect for, support, and
understanding of sexual diversity. Faculty, administrators, staff, parents, and
guardians interested in supporting, celebrating, and discussing community
issues around sexuality are encouraged to attend. For more information,
contact Joyce Allen-Beckford, Assistant Director of Multicultural Services (617-800-2443).
Grandparent Programs
Grandparents of BB&N students are always welcome to attend cultural,
athletic, and other events held at the School throughout the year. A
calendar listing many of these events can be found online at
www.bbns.org. In addition, BB&N hosts a number of special events for
grandparents throughout the year, including Grandfriends’ Days on the
Lower and Upper School campuses when grandparents and special friends
of current students are invited to attend classes and experience the School
firsthand.
BB&N offers Inclusiveness Training throughout the academic year on all three campuses. These sessions, which are repeated to offer an opportunity for broad participation, provide accurate information and open discussions on important subjects. Discussions during the year will include: Culture, Sexual Orientation, Race, and Class. Please refer to the BB&N Notebook and for specific dates and times.
To register, please contact one of your Campus Parent Association Vice-Presidents or Parent Representatives, or call Assistant Director of Multicultural Services Joyce Allen-Beckford at 617-800-2443.
