I think the worst parts of my high school experience have to do with one particular administrator, who would not believe anything I said when I was being abused by a partner. The teachers are the best part. They listen, believe and support you in everything you do.

Berthoud high school is a strange school. The big pluses are the teachers, the music, and the clubs, but thats about where it ends.

I personally had a great experience at Berthoud High School because of the amazing teachers. I learned unfiltered history, worked with math teachers who adjusted to my learning style, and developed my writing skills.

This is a fantastic school that offers a lot for my children and their classes are very engaging. Their athletic programs provide much for the development for our kids. The STEM program especially helped my 2 sons grow up to be young successful men. Thank you Berthoud!

Our neighbors just graduated their second child from Berthoud High School. They speak of the school very highly. He has grown up to be a very fine young man. Our children will not be in High School for 4 more years. We love the small town feeling with high standards.

BHS is a very math and science oriented school. A student there can really excell if they take the initiative. No, the staff doesn't coddle the kids. They are expected to do there work and research post-secondary options for themselves. Your child will easily fall behind here if they're not motivate...
