BHS is a school that's improving and is like a lot of other schools in Arkansas and beyond. It's easy to find something wrong with anything and schools are no exception. The good people of Blytheville need support and encouragement as they work through enormous challenges. It won't happen overnight but it's headed in the right direction. New York writer seems to have gotten a stellar grammatical education there........ oh, by the way, extracurricular activities are actually an extension of the learning environment. They keep many kids involved when they otherwise wouldn't be. Hats off to BHS for trying to do it all for the benefit of the kids.

Blytheville High School is not a terrible school. This school is working towards improving test scores, just as many school districts are struggling to do. There are many good teachers with many great programs that are available for students to take advantage of. There are many positive things about the school. Students who want to get involved and get a good education can do that at BHS.

I must say that Blytheville High school is a terrible school. I graduated in 2001 and I have paid close attention to the schools progress since then because I still have family unlucky enough to attend the schools there. Since then the school has went down hill. The extracurricular activities have suffered to to lack of funds. Everything now is considered gang related if you wear a blue or maroon tee shirt and certain shoes. Children are not allowed to wear coats in the classroom and there is little heat to warm the room. Some teachers are excellent workers, although several could care less if the student learns. I would strongly suggest that you not send your children here, if you must not. It is not a good school to attend.

I attended BHS for four years. I absolutley loved it. I had a good relationship with all of my teachers and I studies and made good grades. I followed the rules by tucking in my shirt and wearing my ID to school. Those who didn't follow the rules were the ones were the ones with bad grades and problems with teachers. Maybe it helped that my parents were very involved and I was in Beta Club, NHS, Yearbook Staff, TARGET, and I was a cheerleader. If you get involved then you don't have time to be introuble. I would recommend BHS because it is a school with potential to give your child an education if he/she will let them. -Graduate of 2004

I beg to differ with those who said blytheville high school is the 'worse school ever'. I attended blytheville public schools from the time i began school until i graduated in 2005. Yes, they are concerned with ID's and shirts being tucked in, but that's because those are rules. As far as teacher's go, i had good teacher's and i learned because i wanted to learn. there are many extracurricular activities for students to be involved in and i enjoyed being involved in them. For all the parents who want to complain about everything, why don't you get involved, because you're not being involved with your childs life is the problem, not the school system's.

Blytheville high school is one of the worst schools ever in the history of the universe. The teachers and principals there are more concerned about the dress code than they are about what's going on in the students' minds. For anyone who is considering about sending their child to this horrible school, turn back now!
