The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
The Test Score Rating reflects annual state test results for this school compared with scores statewide.

BK high school is a place to learn and grow not only as a student but an individual. The school itself is very nice and clean with a friendly atmosphere. The teachers are always available to help and answer questions. The administration seems to do what is best for the students and the school.

I really like high school. I have great friends and one of them I even plan on going to college with and being roommates with her. I've been a part of plays and sports and I have loved every minute of those competitions. But as I have gotten older, I've noticed just how fake some people really are. I just stay close to my little group of friends but I try to stay friendly with everyone.
