Buckingham Browne and Nichols School

The Lower School curriculum is designed to develop critical building-block skills while instilling confidence and a love of learning in our youngest students. In three different developmentally appropriate environments—one for Beginners through Grade 1, one for Grades 2 through 4, and one for Grades 5 and 6—students become strong readers and writers, develop mastery of mathematics and science, and learn about their own culture and other cultures in the social sciences. Students graduate with a firm foundation for success in Middle School and beyond.

The overarching goal of our After School Program is to offer our BB&N students an enriching and fun environment that students can enjoy, and a stress-free, high-quality program that parents can rely on. Our students can choose from options that range from the less structured pace of After Care to the more structured opportunities available in the After School Activities Program (ASAP). All After School Programs are offered on a per-semester basis to BB&N enrolled students per the age/grade restrictions noted. Each semester coincides with the halfway point of the BB&N academic calendar. Our LS After School Program provides coverage each school day from dismissal to 5:30 PM for BB&N enrolled studen
