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.

My experience at H.L. Bourgeois is interesting. Something that is most appreciated here is effort and respect. There is a lot of school pride and the teachers are mostly fun and interactive. Personally, I have watched myself evolve as a person in this school. Though there are grievances with the school, HLB is relatively a good school

The best part of high school for me is sports and math classes but the worst part is waking up early for school.
