School Reviews

5   11/17/2020
I really enjoyed going here! The teachers are super friendly and are always willing to help as long as you put in the work and effort. Some teachers are known to be horrible at teaching, but every school has a few bad apples. They could have a wider selection of courses, but their dual credit program with RVC is really nice and is inclusive to all students who get good enough grades. BNHS isn't the best at its sports, but we have a fun time playing!
