About the Upper SchoolThe Upper School engages students in a rich and diverse educational experience that combines a strong foundation in core college-preparatory subjects with an array of curricular and co-curricular opportunities for exploring personal interests and passions. BB&N students get involved in their learning, develop agile, inquisitive minds, and graduate well prepared for the next stage of their lives.

Upper School AdmissionThere is no single BB&N "type," and we think that's one of our strengths. Students come here with a wide range of talents and interests, from neighborhoods throughout the Greater Boston area, and from a diverse range of racial, ethnic, religious, and socioeconomic backgrounds. What they have in common is a genuine curiosity about the world around them and an eagerness to learn.
