I and my husband graduated from this school and have had one child graduate in 2002. My son is there now and I have seen a major change in the system through the years. My graduate was not at all prepared for college and had to play a lot of 'catch up'. I must agree that they put too much attention on

The extracurricular activities are a joke and the 504 and spec. ed.teachers are over worked and need more help. My child has an ADHD problem and I know that teachers are not all aware of his problems and how to help. Discipline and parent involvement is also lacking. I love Bogalusa but the education here is not up to par anymore and our children are suffering. Read less

Overall the quality of education at BHS is poor at best. They seem to be more concerned for the dress code then the education. Although the dress code is important, the classes available to students is not up to what I think it should be. And the new fence is that to keep the kids in or keep others out?

I attended BHS from 1999-2001. Overall, the quality of this school is very poor.

Bogalusa High is a fine and well-disciplined school. The staff on campus are dedicated and determined to provide your child with an outstanding education that he or she needs. Trust me..

Bogalusa High School is not a very good school at all. After graduating at the top of my class last year, I realized that I was not prepared.
