Thanks to generous parent support of our recent fundraisers, our new organic garden has been planted in our play yard. Our play yard has undergone some exciting new upgrades this school year including new play structures, new sand toys, new paint, and enhanced landscaping. Our final addition is the organic garden which was planted by the children, with accompanying lessons and instruction by teachers and Farmscape. We are thrilled to offer this valuable learning experience to our students. Each class will participate in the process from seed to harvest and will eventually be able to eat the fruits and vegetables that they have grown. Thank you parents for providing such wonderful opportunities for our school. 


Choosing BHPP for your child means choosing a program that is accredited by the National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC). For more than 20 years, families have relied upon NAEYC Accreditation to ensure the quality of education and care provided in programs for young children. NAEYC is the mark of quality in early childhood education.

After months of extensive preparation and a visit by a NAEYC assessor, we were awarded the accreditation with high scores in all areas. We received commendations in the following areas; health, assessment, teachers, families, community relationships as well as leadership and management. The families commendation read "The NAEYC Academy commends your program for the high level of compliance with this component. Recognizing the importance of a reciprocal relationship between families and programs is essential to ensure that programs aer meeting the needs of the children and families that the program serves."
