"But now, I see just how special our journey has b "But now, I see just how special our journey has been. We weren’t just students here. We were contributors to something still being built, persevering through academic rigor to help leave a mark on the expanding BASIS [Independent Brooklyn] community. And because of that, we didn’t just grow—we helped shape the school that shaped us." - Maxim S. '25 in his graduation address

Today we are proud to share the speech of our Valedictorian Maxim S. from the graduation of the Class of 2025. He expertly captured the class' times together and inspired his fellow graduates to look ahead to all that is in store for them.

Thank you to our Class of 2025 for leaving your mark on our school community and building a legacy that will benefit those who follow you.

Today, we are proud to share a Senior Project Show Today, we are proud to share a Senior Project Showcase capturing final presentations by our high school seniors who completed Senior Projects and graduated with High Honors last week. 

Senior Project topics this year ranged from the future of American High-Speed Rail and phonetic variation in New York City Communities to the impact of AI on the future of cryptographic security and how specific color grading techniques and lighting influence the audience perception of futuristic worlds in modern sci-fi movies. 

We are incredibly proud of our seniors. Please join us in celebrating the quality and depth of their research. To watch the videos, see link in bio.
