Q&A With Anonymous Donors

“BB&N has been an incredibly warm and welcoming community, especially since we only relocated back to Cambridge more recently. BB&N has been our children’s academic and social home, and we have also made wonderful friends within the parent community. The school means community, a sense of belonging, and an openness to new and diverse perspectives.” 

“We have young children so we hope to be part of the BB&N community for many years to come. Given our long term involvement with the school, we wanted to help ensure that it’s the most inclusive, beautiful, and age-appropriate environment it could possibly be.” 

“The campaign is visionary not only for its focus on bringing the school campuses up to the same excellent quality as the educational program, but also for its commitment to making BB&N accessible to a wide range of families and students. We’re impressed with the vision of the campaign and can’t wait to see it break ground.”
