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.

During my high school career, I was given a small variety of classes i could take as well as sports i could play as extra curricular. We started a new way of learning my last year and needless to say I was not impressed. Overall experience was good. Lack of discipline.

My favorite experiences at this school are the games and the meets. Everyone gets so involved in the cheering it brings a great mood to them all.

I have loved this school and it just feels like one big family. Three quarters of the school are either related or have grown up with each other so there is a really close knit feeling to everyone. Instead of the typical cliques the nerds rule the school with the rodeo, auto, shop, woods, band members, and artists making up the rest of the groups. The "popular" people are not the prettiest but the ones with the kindest souls and best personalities.

The other students just hated and disrespected me, and the teachers did little to nothing to keep me safe, and motivate...

I am a graduate of Bear Lake High School. While I cannot speak for how the school is run today, my experience there was fantastic. The teachers were the best and the staff was excellent. The classes were (mostly) well taught and prepared me for life after high school. I participated and excelled in...
