Great community but administration is not the best. It is really easy to get lost in such a big school.

Bowie is in desperate need of updates in Academic area. Often no A/C in summer and no heat in Winters. Facilities are busted. We deserve better! There are some good teachers who care but few stay because of building conditions!

Bowie high school has been a good academic experience, although the faculties aren't great, I have learned a lot and connected with many people. I believe some classes at Bowie high school have prepared me well for the future and taught me a lot about the field I wish to be apart of in the future.
