Why BVA

 

At Bay View, We Focus on Developing the Whole Child

Our students have the opportunity to put to use their knowledge and skills in math, language arts, social studies, science, visual and performing arts and technology by working together in teams, and as individuals, to solve problems, answer important questions, and engage with their community. We like to call this the BVA way.

Here are a few guiding stars that our instructional curriculum is built upon.
