BDEA receives Nellie Mae Education Foundation "Catalyst for Change" Award

Boston Day and Evening Academy is honored to be one of the twelve grateful recipients of the Nellie Mae Education Foundation "Catalyst for Change" Award of $50,000. This award recognizes existing examples of personalized, student-centered learning experiences across New England.

"Walking With Memories" project completed

With the generous support of the Massachusetts Cultural Council, BDEA students completed a sculpture project under the leadership of artist-in-residence Nora Valdez.

Students worked on a writing component in their humanities class on memory and identity, and participated in stone-carving workshops to complete the project, which has been installed in BDEA's newest organic garden. With funding from the Berkshire Taconic Foundation, BDEA purchased a larger statue to complete the installation. Please stay tuned for an upcoming dedication of the installation, which will take place in the fall. Visit our photo gallery to see the sculptres in progress.
