I feel like I’m not even going to college, I’m just continuing. – Bryce Taylor, Baltimore ‘20 At Bard, you have a sense of independence…and I wouldn’t have had that discipline nor that sense of responsibility had I not been at Bard. – Kimbrielle Boult New Orleans ‘20 In the News A Message to the Community New Orleans Awards First Associate’s Degrees in Socially Distanced Graduation Ceremony DC Mayor announces investment in permanent building for Bard DC BHSEC Baltimore Principal Francesca Gamber on School Choice, Equity for City’s Students Ithaka S+R: New Case Study: Bard High School Early College See all news About Bard College Support Work at 30-20 Thomson Ave, Long Island City, NY 11101 (718) 361-3133 x8726 earlycollege@bard.edu FAQs Contact Us Facebook BEC Instagram BEC Twitter BEC Translate »...
