I learned how to become a man for others. It was an overall great experience and I would not trade it for the world!

What I like most about Boston college high school is the endless amount of resources provided to the students. You have various clubs and trips you can participate in. You can pave your own path, there is no limitations. If your desire is to travel, go on an trip to Italy. If your desire is business, join the various business clubs. The endless opportunities, that's the BC high difference.

I have had two boys attend BC High. They couldn't be more different personality wise or interest wise. But both not only liked BCH, they were supremely proud to have attended. These days it’s difficult to find passion in our youth, so it’s refreshing to see the abundance of passion within BC High’s...
