I actually enjoyed attending BHS. I played Varsity Basketball there from 10th-12th. The staff was amazing and supportive. The school staff welcomed me due to I transferred from Los Angeles. I can say the food could be better. I would like to see more money & resources given to the athletics department for the basketball team. Better vending machines and healthier choices. I'm an athlete. Last but not least a remodeled or new basketball gym.

The best part of this school is the activity's. They have multiple clubs and fun activity's. The worst parts are that sometimes they close the restrooms for no reason and I believe they should not because Ive always had to walk to the other building to use the restroom since its closed in mine. Another bad part is some of the math teachers not teaching correctly.

The best part was the athletic sports and the biology class. The worst part I experienced was the fact that my chosen classes, which were all honors/GATE, became too easy and had no challenges. I had no homework at the end of the day because I finished it in school hours.
