You look around and there is nothing but your dull, plain, average middle school, but worse. Subjects are boring, kids are extremely rude/inappropriate and you can't do anything about it. There is also discrimination, ex. If a boy got slapped by a girl, and the boy told someone in the office about it, he would get ISS (In-School Suspension), and the girl would be let off (The same situation would happen if it were a white person who got slapped by a person of color, etc.) There are multiple students who constantly disrupt the learning environment, and the most they do about it is give them a little talk on why they shouldn't do that and are sent back to class. The teachers are "Eh" with some good teachers such as Mr. Mcnally and Mr. Campbell (Best teachers ever) and others that are stricter than strict.

My son was completely neglected and teamed up with another student who would constantly bite him and fight with him, and then my son would then get wrapped into the same mix of people. They kept him with the same people around the same people never changed it, never gave him the attention to succeed which is why he was failing in many classes, and his morale was completely down because there was nobody motivating him or telling them that he was doing a good job. The vice principal is a complete slob, rude, and filled with his own power and his tiny position. Safety is a no-go in that school as my son had repeatedly wounds bite marks and even other injuries with almost no reporting or no solution. The teachers are rude and ineffective and unintelligent. And their curriculum is about as low as you can get. I would never recommend this school to anyone nor ever let anyone go to the school if they ask me. They even try to pull a guilt trip about needing to know if my son was going to be enroll in the school and constantly hassling us for it, we just needed time to get him out of that horrible toxic environment. Do not let your child attend this school which is riddled with inconsistency, really horrible education coming of vice principal who is full of himself with a yellow Bronco LOL

I've had multiple students go through BLHS. Some of my students have been highly academic and others, not so much. Regardless, I have found that the school is top notch when it comes to its teachers and staff members. They regularly go above and beyond to build relationships with the students and to support them when needed. CharacterThis school develops strong character in its students, like integrity, compassion and respect-POWER (Perseverance, Ownership, Work Ethic, Engagement, and Respect are everywhere throughout the school. -Our children loved it at BLHS. TeachersTeachers at this school are effective-Teachers are amazing as stated above.
