About Your Gift

Each year, thousands of scholars apply to our lottery. Despite incredible demand for a limited number of seats, high-quality school choice has been challenged by some. BVP is one of the lowest funded school systems in Rhode Island, several thousand dollars per pupil below the state average. Furthermore, BVP must pay for all of its facilities out of our operating budget, whereas traditional public schools do not.

Through it all, BVP continues to provide a college prep education and achieve meaningful results.

• We offer a longer school day and year with more time dedicated to math, reading, and electives.
• Clubs and athletics begin in fifth grade, and we provide additional late busing for scholars who participate in after-school activities.
• Our scholars take field trips to colleges and universities, as well as enrichment trips to museums and cultural events throughout New England.
• Every scholar in the third and fourth grade has the opportunity to learn an instrument.
• High school scholars experience a Personalized Learning Model which includes a device for every scholar.

Your gift will have a direct impact on the high-quality, high-performing programs BVP families expect. Together, we are living our vision and proving what is possible for all kids.
