Continuing and expanding an important and much anticipated part of BB&N’s Global Education Program, Upper and Middle School students had the opportunity to travel to countries in Europe, Africa, and Asia over Spring Break 2025; while a number of MS and US students were able to attend student Round Square Global Conferences in Thailand and England. The generosity of a number of donors helps make these opportunities available to all students through our financial aid program.

“I definitely think I have benefited from this experience! It was a great experience for me to immerse myself in a new country, culture, and situation that expanded my thinking about the world.”

“I think I gained a greater cultural understanding of Spain and its history which contributed a lot to who I am as a global scholar and citizen.”

“I have learned so much through this trip that I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I learned more about how rewarding it can be for me to push myself a little bit out of my comfort zone and how easy it can be to really make connections with everyone even if you may not share as much in common or share the same language. A positive attitude and being outgoing really pays off anywhere.”
