the eighth grade boys basketball team was unnecessarily aggressive and the referees were ignoring violent fouls that injured hillcrest players. the dvms student body was taunting and screaming and essentially harassing the opposing team from the stands the entire game, and teachers and staff were doing nothing to keep peace. an aggressive and unpleasant atmosphere, very unsportsmanlike and uncomfortable to be in their gymnasium. their behavior was not deterred but seemingly encouraged by parents and staff in the stands and on the court. nothing was done to deter the aggressive nature of the dvms players as well.nothing to note about the girls team, they played well. :)

Excellent school. Some teachers aren't good but that's why parents have to advocate for their children. There is inconsistency there that all schools have but All problems were handled quickly and my 3 children have loved it being there. The front office is wonderful and the teachers have been supportive. As a teacher myself, I would send my children here again and again. Plus it's an A rated school.

I have had one child graduate, another currently attending and my last one will be there in a few years. We have absolutely LOVED our Bulldog Family. The admin is amazing. They listen to your concerns and suggestions. The IB program, dual enrollment and culinary program really set BGHS apart from everyone else. One thing I have loved as a parent is the diversity in the school. I don't think there is a minority there at all since it is SO diverse. It helps my kids to see what the real world is all about. People come in all shapes/colors/background/finances and all are great kids. Sadly our sports programs are not the best. Great coaches, but we need more talent to win some games/matches/meets. However, if your child is good at sports (but not about to sign a pro deal), they will have a great time playing on their HS teams. It will instantly bring friendship, school involvement and be able to look back at your high school time and say I was on the basketball team. The one area that I think is a little lacking is our counseling department. BGHS is a Title I school and those juniors/seniors should have meetings set up about college. How/when to apply to college or trade school, a list of scholarships that are for Title I students with deadlines and overall get them excited for whatever path they are going down. The seniors need to graduate knowing they had every opportunity to apply for additional college funding because all the information was given to them.
