About this school
Public choice option that is not guaranteed by address and generally depends on district choice or broader application rules.
Our learning community is founded on the premise that every student is capable of attaining success either in college, the workplace, or both. Every BSSWA stakeholder--faculty, staff, parents, caregivers, CBO partners, and administration--also recognizes the crucial importance of providing our young Scholar-Activists leadership opportunities, scaffolds, and supports in and outside the classroom and, equally important, thoroughly exposing them to a mental model that celebrates college readiness, creativity, student voice, and leadership.
