Send out your most powerful warrior, we must duel

So Im gonna be going to BHS pretty soon so does anyone have advice? Ill be a freshman in 2023 (hopefully I dont kms by then lol) Im going to be a 7th grader this year

Best school in town lot of history at this place

Went to collect a Turkey dinner and some odds and ends..was very satisfied with everything...thankyou

Both of my boys went to BHS.And I know that is the best school in Bakersfield. They both played football and they werent sitting on the bench. The first year Goalla was there my youngest son was a senior and they won valley. I am sorry about his last name, I am not sure how it is spelled. My beautiful daughter is going to BHS now and she loves it. They have produced some of the best athletes to have come out of Bakersfield. I am proud to say once a Driller always a Driller.

At first I didnt want to go to BHS because i heard a lot of bad things and now i am very proud to call my self a Driller and can never imagine going anywhere else.

Excellent school with many wonderful teachers and an exceptional GATE program.

This is my mom’s school and all I want to say is that... this is a good school they give so very good food. Nvm you can don’t have trays for food. Oh I have been informed that they can’t really get ketchup. So that is a big problem for some people. Bec you need ketchup for hot dogs.

A phenomenal Virtual Enterprise program if I do say so myself. Have represented Bakersfield nationally in New York for as long as I can remember, and has recently took 1st place amongst many others around the U.S. They are state champions and are now international champions! So, this school is a pretty BIG deal both in athletics and academics.In addition, the diversity is INCREDIBLE!

I came here to eat it was a very cheap restaurant and it really didnt have much options. This restaurant attracts many teenagers. Later got chased by a cop and escorted to jail :)

Extremely large student body. Old school. My daughter graduated from there through one of their programs which was really good. Long bus ride from home- about 45 minutes on the bus per day.

Love this high school for my kids

I love this school I am a freshman here the only thing i don like about the school is that kids can learn without a stabbing happening but overalll I like it here

They are so rude and so many bad things have happened

I love this school for one reason and thats afjrotc program its the best around

Ya dear i see your site as per this site your school is best school i want admition of my son in your school but i have no U S visaCan any one tell me how can i do this my son age is 3 years

READ THE WHOLE REVIEW ITS WORTH IT IM TELLING YOUI moved here 2 years ago and never expected to like this school, but I was wrong. We have an open campus so that juniors and seniors can go to nearby restaurants during lunch. Plus there is a HUGE, diverse student body – about 3000 students. Fun fact: thats nearly enough man (and woman) power to run a Nimitz class aircraft carrier.BHS used to be a college, and before that, a hospital. The stadium and auditorium? Definitely haunted. BHS students were drafted into WWI And WWII. Hopefully not WWIII. We dont wanna go to war with Russia, right? We even have a graduate that went to North Korea hoping for a better life and got international media attention, as well as 6 years of hard labor. No kidding, its real. Look him up - Matthew Miller. He has a Wikipedia.We have great teams in most sports, but Im not really a sports player. The Acadec team was always #1 in the county, but not anymore. The Virtual Business team is #1 in the COUNTRY, but thats because virtual business is a college prep class (in other words, not for AP and Honors students) and the people who are in virtual business are (surprisingly) AP and Honors students.The food is alright. Never really ate lunch here, but they give free food to students after school. And its not just some cheap pretzels you can get on a 2 hour Delta flight from Los Angeles to San Diego. They give us chicken burgers and little pizzas.If youre into ROTC: Its pretty cool and tight knit. We have guest speakers from all branches, uniform days on Wednesdays, and PT on Thursdays. Im gonna say this though: PT doesnt stand for physical training here... it stands for playtime. Forreal. We play games that you would expect to find in an elementary school recess.Now onto the artsy stuff: Its pretty great. Our drama productions are good. Our art classes learn a lot (except Photography, my brother says otherwise). We have a great marching band and fantastic choir (going to Carnegie Hall in NYC this year). Our orchestra is one of the best in the county Id say. I was a violin last year and it was alright, but theres one downside to it: it starts before school. 0 period.Speaking of 0 period, we have a bunch of classes that start before 1st period. Calculus BC, PE... yeah thats pretty much it. I was kidding when I said a bunch of classesDespite having no walls and gates in some parts, we have real tight security here. Just kidding. We have ONE police officer. We have a couple of unarmed security guards though, and they love to drive around in those little golf carts. Im kinda annoyed that they could use those. Students cant use bikes and scooters but they could use GOLF CARTS?! Quick story: I was almost hit by one of them. Reckless drivers. Smh.As a result of this semi-poor defense system, there are some little problems that happen on campus. Sometimes there are kids that smoke weed in the bathrooms, and there are fist fights here and there. But these arent even the worst problems.If BHS were twitter, and pulling the fire alarm was a hashtag, it would be #1 on trending. There always happens to be some dumb kids sneaking out of class and pulling fire alarms, often multiple times a day. You cant have a fire alarm and expect it to be the only one. They come in bundles. They even decide to pull it at the worst times. I had a lab in chemistry and the fire alarm was pulled. They pulled it so often that our dean (who is one of the nicest blokes ever) said on the loudspeaker:Whoever is pulling the fire alarm, you guys are idiots Or something along these lines.Once there was a kid that wasnt even from BHS and came on campus just to pull the fire alarm... it seems like we have started a new tradition, along with our water tower one.The sad thing is that when the trash cans and bathrooms were lit on fire, nobody pulled the alarm. I dont even think we have fire drills anymore.Im running out of space. Short review: Good school, can be improved.

I loved every year here. Best high school

I live hours away from this school, and I am expected to enroll at this school. Ive just graduated from Tevis Jr.High today, 6/1/17, and I have recieved a response from the district that my transfer to Stockdale has been declined. Sadly, I dont want to go to a school that is about an hour away. Not only do I live five minutes away from my desired school, but the fact that 3 of my transfer requests were declined doesnt help. My parents talked to the district personally, and they seemed to understand, however today, my father has recieved a phonecall regarding our request, and the district has informed that our response has been rejected. Yes, the school has buses, but first of all, the buses are super slow and waste my time. Im going to be in GATE classes next year, and riding in a bus for two hours is just a complete waste of my time. I already have loads of homework to do now. The thoughts of this are stressful and depressing. Second, I have no expierence with buses, and Im foreign to the stops. Not only do the stops worry me, but the slowness of the bus does to. Although riding in a bus might seem convinent, walking is faster. Sorry BHS, nothing against you, in fact my own father graduated from BHS, however, It seems like a complete misspend to me to have to use a bus to a highschool hours away, when I could easily walk to a preferable school, convieniently 5 minutes away. I hope you guys take my query into consideration. Thank you.

Been there for 2yrs its cool no problems so far! I like it

Once a Driller, always a Driller. Best 4 years of my life.
