Our school in the Northeast Bronx is a dynamic, friendly place where students love to learn and are exceeding the borough's and city's test scores.

Great News!

As of June 1, 2010, our school has a new Executive Director: Kevin Brennan. Dr. Brennan recently served as Executive County Superintendent for Warren County in New Jersey, but has a long, distinguished career as a teacher, principal, supervisor of instruction, and director of special services.

In his first memo to the staff, Dr. Brennan wrote, “In visiting the school over the past several weeks, it is clear to me that BBL is truly a child-centered school. Your dedication and concern for the students are evident and commendable. I hope and expect to further support this strong commitment to our students. I look forward to working with you to meet this goal.”

We’re delighted to welcome Dr. Brennan on board!
