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.

As a whole, the school handled issues throughout covid-19 well and prioritized student safety and education. There were some seemingly unnecessary uses of the budget on cosmetic or just generally excessive changes that could have been better placed. Adding polls or some form of student body involvement in the decision regarding the use of the school's budget would be beneficial.

BHS is an alright school, my experience going there was mostly good but some things were hiccups like some of the students getting into fights and such.

I love my high school. They are very much interested in my education and what I plan to do after high school. I feel like there is no way to fail at my school unless I completely stop attending.
