"Having graduated over ten years ago, I still find that Latin has the most challenging and caring teachers in Eastern Massachusetts. They never administered open book exams or study guides that resembled actual tests when I was there. Every student is expected to perform well or get kicked out of here. Now that I live in Milton, the supposed second town in the US to live, my middle-schooler gets lots of slack, namely open book exams for science and math and those study guides that become the actual tests. What?! If only Latin school philosophy can get carried to these teachers here........ That's why Latin is ranked in first place almost yearly. Go Wolfpack."

"BLS does not value creativity or individuality. It's students are taught to conform to outdated status quo and all that is valued by teachers are test scores. This school's educational philosophy is demeaning at best, why torture your child? There is nothing worse than a school that does not value its students' individual learning styles and unique abilities, but BLS also lacks an understanding of the need for children to develop wholly. If you value community, diversity, family, the arts, your child's sense of self-value, or any aspect of education that aims to do more than qualify your child based on his or her test scores, do not send your child here!"
