Boston Day and Evening Academy is a Horace Mann Charter School in the Boston Public School District. While operating within the district, BDEA's charter entitles it to autonomy in five areas: Curriculum, Scheduling, Hiring, Budget, and Governance. BDEA uses these autonomies to operate as a non-traditional, experiential school that serves non-traditional students.

Black History Month at Boston Day and Evening Academy has been powerful and beautiful.

Our hallways have been filled with curated displays, books, and art celebrating Black history, leadership, creativity, and resilience. Students and staff have brought history to life — from the displays you see here to the learning, teaching, and conversations happening every day in our classrooms.

Black History Month is a special time to lift this work up, but the stories, voices, and leadership we are celebrating shape our school community every day, all year long.

We are proud of the ways our students and educators make this learning visible, meaningful, and alive.

Today is National Custodian Appreciation Day, and we are proud to shine a light on the incredible custodial team at BDEA.

With programming in both the James P. Timilty and Phillis Wheatley buildings in Roxbury, we are thankful for the five dedicated people who keep BDEA spaces clean, welcoming, and running smoothly. They show up early in the morning, stay late, and work throughout the year to make sure students and staff are cared for.

💙 THANK YOU to Bob & Jr. at the Wheatley, and Theo, Rupert & Andrew at the Timilty. The BDEA community appreciates you EVERY SINGLE DAY.

At Boston Day and Evening Academy, we know that school is about more than earning a diploma — it’s about navigating life.

That’s why we’re excited to share our new Portrait of a BDEA Graduate — five habits that guide our students as they grow:

🔹 Curiosity
🔹 Pride
🔹 Critical Thinking
🔹 Empathy
🔹 Accountability

These habits show up in everything we do:
✨ Supporting students through our Postgraduate Planning (PGP) program
✨ Helping every student thrive with our Student Success supports
✨ Guiding teaching and learning in our competency-based classrooms

At BDEA, we’re proud to be different. Our graduates leave with habits they can carry into college, career, and community — making a difference right away and for years to come.

💡 This is what it means to Welcome. Embrace. Inspire.
