Priority is given to students who attend a District 2 middle school, or reside in the District 2 geographical area and Manhattan.

BCCHS is committed to admitting a wide-range of students; therefore, we take students who meet the above requirements, but we also admit students with a range of test scores from the 8th grade ELA test.

There are approximately 100 seats offered each year for our incoming class. Open Houses are offered for interested applicants from September through December. Attending an open house does not affect your chances of admission. During the open house, you have the opportunity to visit classrooms, talk to students about their impressions of the school, and meet with the principal, assistant principal, or director of admissions to answer your questions.

Starting September 15, 2008 you can call for a tour at 646-660-6406 Monday thru Friday 9-12 noon
Due to the small space of our school, we are unable to accommodate anymore tours. **PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THAT ATTENDANCE AT A TOUR IS NOT A CRITERIA FOR ADMISSIONS TO BCCHS. We will gladly consider your child's application, regardless of tour attendance. If you have any further questions about the high school admissions process or our school, please talk to your middle school guidance counselor. We understand your desire to see the school to make the right choice for your child, and hope you keep us in mind.
