Baptist Hill Middle High School has undergone many changes over the years in both the physical structure and the academic culture. Built in 1948, Baptist Hill was originally a 9th thought 12th grade traditional high school. Over the years, the building has had several additions and renovations to meet the needs of the student population. In 2009, the school welcomed 6th through 8th graders into the Bobcat Nation, adding Middle School to its name. Today students proudly wear the maroon and gray, representing Baptist Hill in athletics, academics, and technical and service career opportunities.
In addition to the state standard core subjects, Bobcats can take classes in earth science, digital art & design, art, band, and basic computer coding. JROTC introduces students to careers in the military, and Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs prepare students for jobs in early childhood, barbering, business, building construction, biomed, and engineering. Students can also earn college credit through dual enrollment classes at Trident Technical College.
There are also lots of academic, special interest, and service clubs and activities available including gardening club, Minecraft club, cooking club, Robotics Team, National Honor Society, and DECA. For students of the Bobcat Nation, change is a good thing.

Baptist Hill High School has been a phenomenal school for me. All throughout my years here, I have felt very connected with the teachers and student body. The staff here goes out of their way to ensure each student receives a good education and can receive additional non-academic help if needed.

My experience at Baptist Hill felt like one big family. Going to school everyday I felt safe and it made me more comfortable to pay attention and learn inside class.

What I love about Baptist Hill High is the availability of dual credit classes. If I could change something about the school, it would be how the teachers interact with the students and to improve how the lesson is learned.
