Why We Exist
In a world where the pressures on our youth are greater than ever, BIIS stands as a beacon of hope. The youth of today are at risk of losing their way, due to the conflicting negative influences surrounding our modern society. With not enough options for faith-based youth centers, we built BIIS to fill this crucial gap. Our school and community center are designed to provide the essentials that our children need to become healthy, strong, and productive members of society.
Our Approach
At BIIS, we offer a holistic approach to education—one that balances academic excellence with character development, spiritual growth, and community engagement. We believe in nurturing the whole person, through our comprehensive programs, preparing our students not just for college or careers but for a productive life as a community leader. We keep innovating our systems to improve the way we develop future leaders who are confident, empathetic, and equipped with the skills they need to drive societal progress.
Interfaith Harmony and Collaboration
BIIS is more than just another religious community center; we are a hub for interfaith dialogue and collaboration. We believe that by fostering mutual respect and understanding among diverse faiths, we can build a stronger, more united community. Our interfaith initiatives are designed to promote meaningful discussions, bridge cultural divides, and create lasting partnerships that benefit everyone.

Our Vision for the Protection of the Underserved
As we look to see Boston flourish, our vision is clear: BIIS will discover more ways to find the youth who need us the most as we expand our services to meet the increasing requests for quality, faith-based education.

With modern amenities, cutting-edge technology, and a curriculum that fosters both academic and spiritual growth, BIIS is poised to set new standards in educational excellence.
