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 am very proud to be a part of Borger High School. These few years have been rough for me and my family, but with the support and understanding of my principals, staff, and teachers it was easy for me to bounce back. BHS gives all students a chance to grow with opportunities that I never thought would be possible. I saved myself a lot of time and money by enrolling in the dual credit program. I owe all my success to my school.

In my personal opinion, Borger High School is a good school to go to. From friends to teachers, band to football, it's a very hometown kind of setting. Those who are looking to attend Borger High School will be pleased with the amount of local college classes and certificate programs that are available at Borger High.

I love BHS and BISD! The principals are fantastic and do their best to meet student's needs. AP and college courses are great. I think it's fantastic, too, that if on the right track a student can graduate high school with their Associates college degree already completed.
