SUMMER CAMP SNAPSHOTS: We wanted to share a glimpse into all the fun happening in our day camp! Our summer explorers recently traveled through time and space to the Wild West, where campers churned butter the old-fashioned way, whipped up gold slime, and faced off in rodeo relays. They also ventured to the American Museum of Natural History, exploring the Halls of Gems and Minerals as well as the world of North American mammals. Another week, campers trained to become secret agents at the Bear Investigation Bureau. We headed to SPYSCAPE to put their puzzle-solving and code-cracking skills to the test, then returned to campus to pass messages written in invisible ink and navigate a laser maze. Join us! Spaces are filling up quickly throughout the summer. See link in bio to register.

Exciting news! Our very own PreK teacher, Ms. Stella Moon, is recording a new children’s album, and she invited one of her talented students, Celine P., to join her on a beautiful track called “Love Over Fear.” She shared some wonderful photos from the session, and we couldn’t wait to share the moment with you! Here’s what Ms. Moon had to say about Celine’s experience in the studio: “Celine was very brave and sang beautifully. She took direction and stayed on task even when it was challenging. She had a positive attitude and wasn’t even really nervous. She stayed focused and pushed herself to do what was asked of her, even though it was all new and unknown to her. I am very proud of her!” What an incredible experience for Celine, and what a proud moment for all of us! 🎤✨

Thank you, Mr. Festo, for sharing these incredible photos from the Term Project trip to Germany and the Swiss Alps! Our middle schoolers had quite an adventure, including wandering through centuries-old streets and taking in breathtaking, postcard-worthy views of the Swiss Alps. Along the way, they dove into history, sampled local favorites like pretzels, and got a firsthand look at the culture and traditions of two beautiful countries. Trips like this remind us that some of the best learning happens outside the classroom through new experiences, new perspectives, and unforgettable memories with friends. A huge thank you to Mr. Festo for organizing and leading this journey! #TermProjectTrip #GermanySwitzerland #BASISIndependentBrooklyn
