Both my children went to BSGC and are now successful professionals in their fields. They speak and write English and Spanish indistinctly, have had multiple job offers from which to choose and are even, in their 20's and 30's, being head-hunted by organisations on the lookout for people with all kinds of skills beyond the academic. The school's education in values is as important as its academic emphasis - my elder son would give up his life to protect you; the younger one would do whatever it takes to succeed, but would be the first to congratulate you if you beat him at what he does best. We also made a sacrifice because it was our belief that their education was the thing of greatest value we could give them in life. It was 100% worth it.

Mis dos hijos, fueron a este colegio, hace ya tiempo. Hoy son dos personas de provecho con sus familias y trabajos. Como toda experiencia en esta vida hay altos y bajos pero en este colegio hubieron más altos que bajos!! Y prueba de ello es que su circulo de amistades es amplia y muchos de ellos son de su época en este colegio. Yo lo recomiendo y más sabiendo que no es un negocio familiar/particular, todo el dinero que se genera se vuelve a invertir en el centro.

Fond memories of my schooldays in BSGC and many friendships that last even up to this day! Last Saturday’s BSGC family day proved that this community spirit is still at the core of our school😃 with many a friendship that will continue for ever.
