Learn More Classical Education The mission of BFHS is to train students to be intellectually curious and pursue academic and moral excellence through the pursuit of what is good, true, and beautiful, to teach them how to think instead of what to think. To that end, BFHS uses the classical model of education to train our students both in mind and in heart. It allows us to fall in love with knowledge, and use the talents we acquire to become thinking, moral citizens.
