I love BCHS. I've made a ton of close friends and have had a great academic experience. The faculty is great and are very inclusive to all races, genders, etc.

Boone is a lot different than most people think. It unfortunately has a bad reputation and is talked down on a lot but I'm here to tell you its the exact opposite. The teachers go the extra mile to make you feel heard and feel assured. With recent renovations, the school looks good as new. The students here really know how to keep to themselves so conflict is little to none.

I have a child who goes here as well as I am alumni. Good teachers who choose to be involved. Resource officers and disciplinary methods in place. Just an overall good school and learning facility.

This is a great school and I am glad to have my students enrolled here. One has received a full scholarship because of the work done at Boone. The other is well on the way.
