Bristol High School is a very tight knit school. The graduating class sizes are small for being a public school, but it really is a great community and everyone knows each other. The teachers are very involved in their students and they care about their future, academics, and well being. In times of need everyone comes together and it is truly a wonderful thing to be apart of. I would just like to see the college- readiness side of things change for the better.

I enjoyed my time at Bristol High School. We are a small school district and your friends/classmates feel like family.

I loved Bristol High School because it was a small school and you knew everyone. People were always involved and you always received one-on-one work with your teachers.

Nice place. Way better than bensalem high school and middle school. There are drugs in bensalem. Not as much in Bristol. I love Bristol.

The school is very old and needs updating on certain things. I've heard sooo many kids complain in the winter about how cold it is and the heat doesn't work well. They have to keep their coats on!
