Facilities
BFIS facilities are divided in two different campuses in the same location: On campus hosts Early Childhood and Elementary School building, as well as the Middle School Building. Across the street, another campus hosts the High School Building. BFIS facilities are purposefully designed to meet the needs of the students at each stage of their development.
