Campaign Donor Reflections

“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.” – Anonymous

“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.” – Anonymous

“BB&N has been the center of our lives for the past fifteen years, shaping our adult community, our kids’ closest friendships, and of course their academic and athletic pursuits — so it was an easy decision to choose to support the Bright Bold Next Campaign for the past 5 years. As parents of three children who started in the Lower School, we are particularly excited about the Lower School Renovation project and how it transforms spaces for teaching and learning on that campus.” – Gillien Todd P’20, ’25, ’25, Trustee

“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 the Lower School Renewal Project break ground.” – Anonymous

Overview

The Bright Bold Next Campaign is a transformative investment that will elevate the student experience from pre-K through grade 12. This campaign will ensure our students are equipped with the skills and experiences necessary to thrive in a changing world. Your support brings transformative programs and spaces to life.

Financial Aid

Financial aid ensures talented, curious, mission-aligned students can attend BB&N regardless of financial circumstance. Our community of students with diverse backgrounds & perspectives cultivates deeper learning. Your support expands access while strengthening the experience for every student.

Innovation

Innovation is a core part of BB&N culture. It allows students & faculty to explore new ideas and create meaningful work beyond the classroom. Your support fuels programs that turn ideas into impact. An investment in innovation is an investment in what is possible for our students and the future of learning.

Lower School Renovation

The Lower School renovation provides our youngest students with a modern learning environment, designed entirely through the lens of pedagogy. Your support will ensure our spaces align with how students learn today.

BB&N Fund

The BB&N Fund is the most vital source of flexible support, closing the gap between tuition and the true cost of a BB&N education. Your support sustains exceptional faculty, classroom resources, and critical programs that impact every student.

Grove Street Campus

Thanks to early donor support, the Grove Street Athletic Campus is fully operational, improving daily life for student-athletes and strengthening school spirit. Continued support expands its impact for the entire BB&N and Watertown public community.
