BMHS has extremely competent, caring, and conscientious instructors and staff. We are small enough that every child who attends regularly and participates in a sincere effort to learn will achieve his/her goals.
2 3/15/2010
This school has many problems centering around the administration and relating to school board priorities. Student and teacher moral is very low. Drugs and alcohol use among students is very high. Little parent involvement. This is a Title 1 school that has never made AYP.
