Gym A was occupied by green screen filming on Tuesday. Students were invited to come dance, perform special tricks, or simply wave on camera for the 2023 “You Got In” video. The video, which will welcome newly admitted students and families later in the year, is directed, choreographed, and produced by students.
There were no Upper School classes on Wednesday due to winter parent teacher conferences. For more information regarding signing up for conferences, please email registrar@bcdschool.org.
On Thursday, students gathered for Advisory. As part of Dam Jam on February 3, a students vs. faculty basketball game will take place. Students were encouraged to sign up if they are interested in playing.
On Friday, students studying Chinese took a trip to the Greater Boston Chinese Golden Age Center.
