We conducted an extensive search when we were choosing a middle school for our children and we could not be more thrilled with our choice of Berkeley Carroll. From the first acceptance letter, which is personalized for each student, I could tell that this was a school that would really know my child. It is a school that creates a safe environment where students can take risks, push themselves and try out new talents. As my daughter points out, there is no one Berkeley Carroll student and rare is the student that only does one thing; she is an athlete and an artist, a scientist and a writer, an actor and a debater. After such an incredible middle school experience we didn't think twice about keeping both of our children at BC for High School. The high school is incredibly rigorous and I have heard from many BC alum that they were well prepared for college life. My daughter has had the good fortune of participating in the Science Research and Design program, and is currently working with a doctoral student from Harvard on her research. The faculty is incredible, in both the middle and upper schools. They are brilliant, dedicated and truly love teaching. They push students to delve deeper and ask more questions.
In the six years that my two children have been a part of the school, they have (combined) been to Africa and Wyoming, they have (combined) played on basketball, softball, volleyball and swim teams, they are in the orchestra, community service society and yearbook and they have only participated in a fraction of what the school offers. I cannot imagine a better education for my children.
