BHS is a great school to prepare students for trades, but not the best for academics. While the CTE programs are important and can always use more funding, the school could also focus more on education classes.

Back in 1996 there was a very strong drug culture. When I was in high school there were 30 guys in the boys bathroom passing cigarettes.And marijuana cigarettes. Plus meth and coke. There was a lot of fighting all of the time but like I said that was back in the months it was a curupt time.

There are a few teachers at this school who really do care about the students, but there are some who should not really be teachers.

Most of the reviews are old and outdated. Bisbee High School is a great option and doing much better since Darin Giltner became principal.

I am a parent and a BHS alumni. The major problems at Bisbee are related mostly to poverty and lack of financial support from the State of Arizona. Bisbee has always supported our schools even as other nearby communities much wealthier did not. It is hard to find great high school teachers in Arizon...

Going downhill in every way. Leadership cares more about their image than substance. Many if the teachers care more about local politics than teaching. There is also a massive drug problem that administration goes to great lengths to cover up. I have kids in this district but I will pull them before...

I both graduated from the school and am now a parent in the district. I found I was prepared well and thoroughly by my teachers. Classes are small and the faculty very accessible and caring. The principal is engaged and innovative. It is a great school getting better each year.
