Beverly played an integral role in our admissions journey. From the very beginning, she stood out as one of the warmest, most knowledgeable admissions professionals we encountered during what can often be a stressful and overwhelming process. Beverly is truly an expert in independent school admissions. Her deep understanding of every phase of the process—combined with her empathy, professionalism, and attention to detail—made all the difference for our family. She took the time to guide us thoughtfully at every step, ensuring we felt informed, supported, and confident in our decisions. Even after the admissions process concluded, Beverly continued to be an advocate for our children and a trusted resource within the school community. Her dedication, insight, and genuine care set her apart from others in her field. For any family navigating this complex process, I can say with complete confidence that Beverly is the very best in the business. You will be in exceptionally capable—and caring—hands.

My girls are my heart and entrusting them to a school that would have such an indelible mark on their lives took careful consideration. My first words to you, Beverly, were " my wife told me to come to this informational and I really have no idea where to start with this whole school process" to present-day with my kids thriving and our family being part of the wider school community. Bev, as head of Lower School Admissions, you literally sculpted the culture of the student body at BC; that same culture is the confidence, intelligence, and growth in my girls, it has benefited this family, and that would not have been possible without you. Thank you.

Bev, to say that you'll be missed by our BC community is a vast understatement. I feel so blessed to have gotten to know you during the last few years while I've been on the board. Since my daughter entered in the 6th grade, we didn't have the pleasure of meeting you sooner. I see how the lower school and this community has been deeply touched and shaped because of all you've done in the past decade, and I know that your role was incredibly tough but you did it with so much grace. I hope that your next chapter is inspiring and feeds your spirit, and I hope you're excited to step into your next life adventure.

Tina and I wanted to thank you for everything you've done for our family and the larger BC community. You were a very significant reason that we fell in love with the school in the first place.

Bev, I have fond memories of sweating out the parent interviews. But once they happened, you were so easy to talk to. It didn't feel like an interview. You'll be missed. BC is better off for you having been a part of it.

Bev, the school is definitely going to miss your dynamic leadership, and Shayla and I will certainly miss your positive energy and enthusiasm. We are forever grateful to you for admitting our daughter. It literally changed the course of our lives and has given us so many wonderful experiences and new friendships. We thank you so much!

From a student: “Dear Ms. Beverly, First, I wanted to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to put into words how grateful I am for you and everything you’ve done for me. You’re the reason I’m even at BC, and honestly, that has completely changed my life in ways I didn’t even expect. Because of you, I was able to rediscover my love of writing. I used to write a lot when I was little, but being here gave me the confidence to actually be a writer and believe that my voice matters. I even started my own social justice club in middle school because of it, and it makes me so happy to have found something I’m passionate about. I recall the first time I met you, how kind, welcoming, and warm you were. You made me feel like I truly belonged here before I even became a student. I think that’s such a special gift you have, making people feel seen, supported, and encouraged. I will always remember how you believed in me from the very start, and that’s something I’ll carry with me forever. I know you’ll continue to change the lives of many others wherever you go. You’ve already made such an impact on mine, and I’m sure there are so many other students who feel the exact same way. I hope you get to do amazing things, meet beautiful souls, and feel so proud of all the work you’ve done. You truly deserve that. Thank you again for everything, from the bottom of my heart. Sending lots and lots of love, gratitude, and best wishes your way!”
