On Friday evening June 1, 2018 our BHSEC Step Team (BHSEC Panthers) and our BHSEC Bollywood Dancers were invited to participate in the Metropolitian Musuem of Art Teens Take The Met! event.

The Writing and Thinking Workshop is a weeklong intensive learning experience that provides Bard Early College students with exercises in critical reading and writing.

The Seminar Sequence is the signature humanities experience of the Bard Early College program. The four-semester interdisciplinary Seminar Sequence exposes students to seminal texts from antiquity to modernity, which students engage through critical reading and interpretation.

Community & Diversity

BHSEC students come from a wide variety of cultures and backgrounds. In addition to a rigorous academic schedule, students are involved in clubs, sports, and other extracurricular activities.

Diversity in the student body and in the school community as a whole enriches learning experiences by broadening the perspectives both inside and outside of classrooms.

The various art forms are not only a vehicle for expression, but also methods of investigation and problem solving.
