My child love BHS. The AICE program is stellar and the sports program is showing great improvement this year. The band has just scored Superiors in competition. However, The Art program is severely lacking. When other schools are teaching shading, depth of field, still life, and the human form BHS is doing kindergarten arts and crafts. When other schools are teaching about the masters and their techniques BHS is cutting and pasting and finger painting. So sad.
