Back in May 2012, on my regular morning carpool jaunt to BSM with "my" five freshman boys and I had our typical conversation where we discuss a "topic of the day." This day, as we were winding down their freshman year, I asked: "What is your favorite memory of freshman year? And, what is your least favorite memory? Why?" To this inquiry my son, Jonathan, responded, "Oh, that's easy! My least favorite memory is Jack's (Jablonski) paralyzing injury. My favorite memory is winning the state hockey championship for Jack!" I followed up asking why.

During this season of giving, we are grateful for all who choose to support BSM. Donations, both large and small, fill in what is needed beyond tuition to meet our yearly operating budget. In addition, donations allow BSM to do more for our students. We can add new curriculum, increase our learning supports, offer more tuition assistance, and build new spaces for our students to learn and grow.
