Kindness matters

How are you today? A short while ago that seemed like a simple question. Now, as we physically distance ourselves to keep each other safe, it carries greater weight and urgency.

How are YOU today? If you or someone close to you is suffering – health, unemployment, economic stress, worry about an uncertain future – we are concerned for you. If you and those close to you are fine for now, we are grateful for your good fortune and hope it will continue.

No matter what your situation during this crisis, we are in it together. Let's embrace the BB&N motto and core values, with an emphasis on what the world needs a little more of right now: kindness.

Strawberry Night & Reunion Weekend 2020 – POSTPONED

It may not surprise you that we are postponing this year's Strawberry Night and reunion festivities. As advisories about public gatherings continue to evolve we want to protect the health and safety of all involved. We will reschedule reunions and announce a date soon – check bbns.org/strawberry for updates.

Let's help each other

How can the BB&N community support you? How can you support others? How can we be united at this time?

One way is to join BB&N Connect, our online alumni/ae directory and networking platform. You can advertise your business, post a job, seek or offer career advice, or connect with a classmate.

BB&N's Day of Giving, planned for today, April 3, will be rescheduled. In the meantime, if you are able to contribute, consider making a gift to the uKnighted Community Fund to provide Head of School Jen Price with resources to support students, families, faculty, and staff in need during this challenging time.

For more information about ways you can help BB&N and alumni/ae resources that can help you, visit the Be uKnighted page on our website, under About Alumni/ae. Because kindness matters.

We are here for you

The "new normal" at BB&N will extend at least through May 4 as we follow Governor Baker's order to keep school campuses closed. BB&N students and faculty are back to class online, and we are all adjusting to working from home. We can't guarantee that the Advancement team Zoom meetings don't resemble this one... the video aspect and special guest visits by children, partners, and pets simply add to the excitement! If there is anything we can do for you, please contact us.

Warmest regards,

Cecily, Brianna, and the BB&N Advancement Office Team
