School Reviews
| 5 BDHS students are different in a good way. Teachers are chill, yet demand a lot. Admin helps students out so do teachers. Some good clubs. You can tell teachers n leaders care and will help you. - Posted by Student/Alumni - Amari |
| 1 Too many racist students, also teachers. Staff needs to pay attention to that and also on the teachers. Thankfully, not all staff are like that. - Posted by Student/Alumni - Alias |
| 2 Its country, that i dont mind but the teachers just dont teach like they should and every student there knows that. - Posted by Student/Alumni - alamt |
