What Does the Class of 2015 Have to Say?
“It's the first time in my academic career where I've felt like a human and not just another number or statistic.”
“So far I have already made big progress. I have failed, I have learned, and I have moved forward.”
“I have found Bridgton to be a home very far away from home.”
“The teachers, coaches, and advisors have paid more attention to me than anyone ever has at previous schools.”
“It is feeling less like a school and more like a family. My classmates are my brothers.”
“BA is not only a boarding school, it is one big family living together and helping each other.”

“These two years at BA are amazing for me As an international student, language might be the hardest part, but BA has a great environment to improve my English. Before I came to BA, I don't think I could adapt an all-boy school in such a small town, however BA showed me its historical and traditional side, and it made me know the American culture and the way people get on with each other perfectly. So I wanna say ‘The years at BA make me different!’” - Adrian Huang
