We prepare students to be responsible and open-minded as they engage with the world around them.  \nCore Values  \nInquiry: We promote curiosity and critical thinking to inspire a lifelong love of learning.  \nIntegrity: We strive to be honest, conscientious, and accountable in our actions even when no one is watching.  \nBelonging: We foster a culture of respect, well-being, and connection that values all individuals and empowers them to discover and be their authentic selves.  \nKindness: We strengthen our communities by recognizing our common humanity and treating ourselves and others with respect and compassion.  \nMotto  \nHonor-Scholarship-Kindness  \nDiversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Global Education Commitments  \nEquitable Learning: Leveraging anti-racist, anti-bias, culturally responsive pedagogy and practices that provide equitable learning opportunities for all community members.  \nMeaningful Relationships: Building meaningful relationships with inquiry, intention, and compassion. Transparency: Acting with transparency and accountability that support lasting systemic change.  \nSelf-Reflection: Fostering a practice of critical self-reflection that invites individual and communal examination of our position, power, and privilege.  \nEngagement: Pursuing equity for all through exploring multiple perspectives, active solidarity, and community engagement.  \nGlobal Education Program  \nBB&N has a strong and ongoing commitment to the principles of a global education. With social and local issues becoming increasingly global and interdependent, it is essential that the School cultivate global citizens. Students learn to be open and curious, to collaborate and communicate with each other and across boundaries, to appreciate multiple perspectives, and to recognize that the world is made up of interconnected and interdependent systems. As they develop these competencies, students investigate the world beyond the classroom, propose innovative solutions to problems, and act upon critical issues. These competencies are developed through the School’s courses, study abroad opportunities, Global Online Academy, School-sponsored travel, virtual exchange programs, and extracurricular activities.  \nUpper School Program Planning Guide 2025-2026 2  \nUpper School Contact Information  \nUpper School Director: Jessica Keimowitz ([jkeimowitz@bbns.org](jkeimowitz@bbns.org), 617-800-2130)  \nUpper School Assistant Director: Katrina Fuller ([kfuller@bbns.org](kfuller@bbns.org), 617-800-2138)  \nDean of Students: Rory Morton ([rmorton@bbns.org](rmorton@bbns.org), 617-800-2165)  \nDean of Teaching and Learning: Michael C","cbCaioVTDu4mrOrI","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioVTDu4mrOrI","pdf",3773524,93,"English","# Mission\n## Core Values\n## Motto\n## Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Global Education Commitments\n# Global Education Program\n# Upper School Contact Information\n# Upper School Graduation Requirements\n# Four-Year Course Planning Worksheet\n## Grade 9 at-a-glance\n## Grade 10 at-a-glance\n## Grade 11 at-a-glance\n## Grade 12 at-a-glance\n# Department Resources\n## Arts Department\n## Athletics Department\n## English Department\n## History and Social Sciences Department\n## Mathematics and Computer Science Department\n## Science Department\n## World Languages Department\n# Academic Considerations and Policies\n## Academic concerns and academic status\n## Accommodations for students with disabilities\n## Exams\n## Grade reports\n## Honors and independent study program\n## Pass-fail courses and program changes\n## Senior requirements and senior spring project","[{\"question\":\"What planning tools does the guide provide for upper school students?\",\"answer\":\"It includes the Upper School Graduation Requirements and a Four-Year Course Planning Worksheet, along with grade 9–12 at-a-glance sections and program planning materials by department.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the guide reflect the school’s diversity, equity, inclusion, and global education commitments?\",\"answer\":\"It details commitments such as equitable learning, meaningful relationships, transparency, self-reflection, and engagement, and explains how global education competencies are developed through courses, study abroad, and online or exchange opportunities.\"},{\"question\":\"What academic policies and support topics are covered?\",\"answer\":\"The guide covers academic concerns and academic status, accommodations for students with disabilities, arts department content policy, credit from other schools/summer academic work, exams, grade reports, honors, independent study, and pass-fail courses.\"}]","Upper School Program Planning Guide 2025-2026 | PDF",234]
