Overall, my experience at Batavia High School was relatively positive. The teachers are well equipped and have a lot of knowledge to provide to students. As for classes themselves, there was not a lot of opportunity for AP or advanced coursework. I would like to see a lot of changes at Batavia to challenge students more and offer difficult classes. The administration is great and can handle a lot.

You will do as well as you want to do. I never ran out of opportunities while here. You can even take courses at GCC if you want.

Batavia High School was a great place to get my high school education. This school has provided multiple extracurricular activites, sports and class options. BHS has teachers who truly care about their students. I feel like I am not just another test score at Batavia High.
