GreatSchools Rating
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.

I transferred to Blaine my junior year and loved the culture and people. I was welcomed into the school and athletic programs. It was easy to fit in and my academics picked up right where I left off the Summer before. I am glad I got to experience the Blaine school district as a part of my school education

BHS is run down...
