B-CC is a pretty above average school I’d say. My time here was alright, honestly. I enjoyed the amount of activities here, honestly there’s something for everyone and I find that pretty nice! Academics are pretty good and rigorous however I think the culture here can get a bit stressful for any student who cares about going to college. From my personal experience, I found it hard to connect with some of my wealthier peers, many here come from families who have enough money to not have to worry about the price of anything really. Teachers were definitely my favorite part of the whole experience next to the amount of things you can get involved in.
From what I've seen it is very inclusive overall. Most of the teachers are good, especially for upperclassmen. The school has very nice architecture. Windows in every classroom. The security guards are nice. There are also pianos all over school for no significant reason, and you can often hear someone playing one. What they lack: non academic classes and a variety of languages. They do not have any non academic classes, such as a car class or wood working class. Nothing hands on. They also don't have Italian; They have Spanish, French, Arabic, and (maybe) Chinese. overall good experience!
The diversity is awesome! Students from all over the world are found at BCC. There are a lot of very challenging classes which is awesome and really helps students get ready for college. Clubs and sports are also very well organized and diverse. My global experience has been excellent as my teachers, the staff, the students and the coaches are all very welcoming and ready to help!
