Bloomington is not as bad as some may think. The physical appearance of the campus is not very good but it is not something that cannot be dealed with. Whether or not the student attending is successful depends completely on them. They must be smart and choose friends carefully. Don't blame it on Bloomington; it's like home.

Bloomington High is actually a pretty diverse and interesting school for those that believe otherwise. We have so many extracurricular clubs and activities to offer and our sports program has achieved many championship titles. People will look at Bloomington and think, 'Oh that school is ghetto. It's not a challenging school.' It may not be the prettiest campus around, but Bloomington offers about 20 AP courses, all of which are extremely challenging. I'm proud to say that I'm taking two of those AP courses. My experience at Bloomington so far has been great. You just need to get involved and be motivated to work. When it comes down to it, only YOU can motivate YOURSELF to succeed in life.

I am currently a failing freshmen becuase I am procastinating. The work I do contains many flaws but I will not give up. My goal is to graguate and succeed, but if I don't try enough then why try at all. I don't blame the school system, nor my self, but this school is at a very low academic level. Students aren't motivated enough also are the teachers who don't care or worry about our future. This school has to improve in many levels in order for our future children to succed. The community, parents, staff, and teachers must be involved in order for any school to succeed. I do not recommend going to this school nor suggest it as your second, nor back up plan for their parent's chldren. I hope this school improves after my graduation.

How does someone admit that they are 'pocastinating' and that their 'work contains many flaws' but does not blame themself for their lack of success? That it is the problem with too many kids today, it is never their fault, it is always someone else's. Teachers can have high expectations till the sun goes down, but that does not give the students the motivation to do what 'they' need to do. Teacher's can motivate, encourage, offer tutoring, afterschool help, and even extra credit (which is not a requirement) and there are still students that do nothing to help themselves. Fortune helps him that's willing to help himself. You can lead a student to knowledge, but you can't make them think.

I am a proud graduate of this school. Every school has those teachers who are only about getting a pay check, and I have had some. But the teachers who have made the most impact on me came from that school. In fact, the person that probably had the most impact on me in my entire life was my English teacher, Mr. McAdams. There are greats sports programs and musical programs. The NJROTC program is a lot of fun, some people think it's all about getting yelled at, when I was in for 2 years and I NEVER got yelled at. Some of the kids at the school don't want to learn and don't want to be there, and that gives the school a bad rep. But I have never had a bad thing to say about the school.

BHS's AVID PROGRAM is perhaps the only beneficial program to the entire school. If you want your child to succeed, make sure they are in this program, it has almost a 100% success rate in getting your kids in college. As a BHS alumni, I can say that I owe AVID a great deal of thanks.

This school I would say is the best school for my kids they haves lots of sports. And to keep them safe they make them wear IDs so they know there from the school
