Overview Paragraph

Our school motto is: 'Engage Minds, Develop Leaders, Explore Possibilities.' Our goal is to meet students at their level and prepare them academically for career and college by graduation. We want our students to find a sense of purpose and place in the world, and to see the connection between school and the real world. We aim to build relationships that develop our students into leaders able to achieve their potential in college and careers. Note: In order to model the professionalism we believe essential for our students' success, all students at BLA II wear a school uniform.
