Jack during the 9th Grade trip to Paris in 2012

Dear Paul,

I hope you are well!  I wanted to take a moment to write to you about a BCD alumnus, Jack D., who graduated from our school this year.  Jack was the type of student that embodied everything that makes our school a great place.

Jack was a leader in classroom discussions, offering insight and humor often.  His senior project presentation was extraordinary, and the work he completed was magnificent.  Jack was a formal and informal leader on campus, too.  He was a dorm leader and prefect, and he served as a tremendous role-model for our youngest students on campus.  He was an integral part in the progress each of those young boys made this year.  He was a key leader in our largest on-campus fundraiser, and he remained a committed varsity athlete, where his coaches noted his dedication and steady play.

In his three years at our school, Jack grew in confidence and expertise in the classroom, followed his passions in a variety of interesting and challenging ways, and left his mark on our community in ways that will last for some time to come.  He truly embodies our goal of finding one’s best self, and we are certain he will continue to amaze us as he moves on to St. Lawrence University next year.  He will be missed!

As always, we thank you for the terrific work everyone does at BCD and the wonderful students you continue to send our way.  We look forward to working with you again next year!

All the best,

The Admission Team
