What does “He had a good day at school” mean to you?

AT Traditional SCHOOL Environments, it means

“He was not in trouble. I can’t think of anything else”

AT BK ACADEMY IT MEANS

“He had a dinosaur puppet show. He was great with taking turns to be the director or the audience with his peers. He also practiced how to hold the scissors and cut at a 90-degree angle. When his friend said “Let’s have a quiet game” he said something very cute: “I can’t be quiet!” He’s so self-reflective.

Making Sense of Asynchrony & Neurodiversity in Gifted and Twice Exceptional

Dr. Austina De Bonte’s presentation was sponsored by BK Academy. It was on March 31st 2026, 6:30-8:30 pm.

At the talk she said, "BK Academy is the only local school that provides more than just a year or two of acceleration for highly gifted students of all ages, even in preschool."

BK Academy is now offering Homeschool Extension up to 8th grade.

NOW ACCEPTING 4th ad 5th GRADERS!

BK (Bellevue, King County) Academy is a post-constructivism school where teachers’ roles to guide and scaffold students are emphasized. We serve highly gifted students from preschool to 5th grade. BK Academy is a small school with an individualized curriculum and emphasis on social-emotional development. Dr. Meera Shin started the school to support her own gifted child and expanded it when she saw the needs of other gifted students weren’t being met with standard curriculum. The individual attention and support each child receives is why BK Academy stands out with neurologists, psychiatrists, and other cognitive experts in the region.
