For the intellectual development and academic preparation of students at BMS, we aim:

• to promote high academic standards that are consistent with each student's potential.
• to aid each student in acquiring high levels of proficiency in the fundamental communication processes of reading, writing, speaking and listening.
• to offer a curriculum which will adequately prepare students for further education (college, technical/trade school, training) and with employment skills.
• to develop creative and critical thinking skills including the logical defense of our faith (apologetics).
• to motivate students to pursue independent study in areas of interest and to provide them with the necessary traditional research skills and the use of the internet.
• to develop an awareness and an understanding of man's role in God's creation and of his responsibility to be a good steward of Earth's resources.
• to develop an understanding and an appreciation of the fine arts through exposure and participation.
