When it comes to school, I dont think i'd go anywhere else. The teachers and other students here are great to be around. When I think of the worst things of boulder, I have to think for a while. Theres nothing I could really say is bad about the school. Although, I would like to see a funner way to bring up assignments and schooling to keep students ingaged. Otherwise, Boulder City High School is a good school and it deserves to be known.

The cliques that happen in this school can be both positive and negative but in my experience, majority of them have a negative impact on the environment. I do love the way that the school goes about school spirit and sports. I would love to see more student involvement in the way that the school is run.

If you care about throwing your cap on the football field at graduation and receiving an A just for showing up this is a perfect school for your child. If you care about college readiness, a decent education, diversity or any kind of professionalism this is not a good school for your child. Administ...
