Gifted Gerry Member Honored at Prep School

Dontay Downer a current freshman and former Gerry Clubhouse member was placed at Loomis Chaffee School by BCNY’s Independent School Placement Program in 2011.

In true BCNY fashion, Dontay has already been named to Loomis’ honor roll and earned his first varsity letter in cross-country running.

The Independent School Placement (ISP) Program was established in 1957 and is the nation’s oldest placement program for first generation students. Since its inception, the program has successfully graduated over 1,800 boys. Each year, BCNY supports over 250 students in independent day and boarding schools throughout the country.

Loomis Chaffee School, located in historic Windsor, Connecticut, is regarded as one of the top preparatory schools in the country. It is an “internationally recognized college preparatory school for grades 9-12 that fosters critical thinking and a global perspective in talented students from around the state, the country and the world.“

Congratulations to all of our freshman ISP students on a successful first semester. We look forward to hearing more as your academic careers progress.
