Letter from the Administrator

Dear Prospective Parents,

Thank you for inquiring about BBS, a school that assists parents in preparing their children academically and spiritually for a life of service. Few decisions will have the lasting impact on children as that of school choice.

There are several ways you can learn more about our school’s academic and co-curricular programs. 

  • Call us at 737-3550, ext. 121, to set up an appointment for a personal tour.  With tours conducted daily, it is not difficult to find a convenient time for a visit.
  • Review our DVD, handbook, calendar, school uniform policy, and much more on this website.
  • Fill out the application (accessible in next section).  We will contact you to set up a time for entrance testing and a visit.

For over twenty years it has been my privilege to partner with parents, teachers, and staff in educating boys and girls. We provide a challenging academic program in a Christian environment with small class sizes. Our students come from twenty-two schools districts in the greater Harrisburg area and from over eighty local churches.

Again, thank you for your interest in our school. I trust I can meet you and your family soon.

In Christ,

 

George J. Wiedman
Administrator
