Bledsoe County High School is overall an average high school. This high school has both its positives and negatives. Throughout my experiences of this school I have noticed that it strives to help students to reach the best of their potential, but the lack of motivation from students produces failure to this school's goal. I suggest for this school to start a program to help motivate students to succeed in their life ambitions.

It was alright, but the food could be much better and we could use more than five minutes to get from class to class.

I have enjoyed my time at Bledsoe County High School. The teachers always treat me like I'm their friend. The staff are wonderful and the classes offered are plentiful. I feel like I am prepared for life after high school thanks to BCHS.
