4/8/2025

Brevard High School was a great experience. Starting my freshman year in 2020, my self confidence was at a all time low. However, throughout the years I found myself and what I loved to do with the help of many teachers and influences within the school. Brevard High prepared me to face the world outside of our small town and will always have a special place in my heart.

I quite liked BHS, my entire family went here even one of my parents. All the admin and staff are helpful and push you towards success, so I really liked them for that.

Even though it's amazing, Brevard High School could definitely use some tender love and care. For instance, our CTE wing is the oldest hallway here. The wa...
