The Head of School, Mrs. Linda Parker commented, “I am delighted with these results. I am particularly proud of these students as they have proven their ability to surpass expectations as predicted by the baseline data. This is not only the result of the students’ self-discipline, hard work and focus, but also the result of teachers taking a personalized approach to their students’ abilities and encouraging them to fulfill their potential.

“These results confirm that the BHS approach adds significant value to the educational experience. I would like to specifically congratulate the top 6 students: Karina Rebellato -8A*,1A; Kathleen McBeath -5A*,4A; Aanika Rahman -5A*,4A; Sophia Schwertl – 4A*, 5A; Taylor Hill – 3A*, 4A, 2B; and Reem Bushara 3A*, 3A, 3B.”

I would like to thank our hard-working, dedicated and qualified teaching staff for their unwavering commitment to raising every student to meet these high academic standards.”
