My daughter is a freshman at BHS. This is her first year at a large public institution, so you can imagine the anxiety and concern both she and her parents had when enrolling her into BHS. However, the teachers and school guidance counselor have been very helpful in making her transition uneventful. The caliber of the student body is not where we would expect it to be, but I believe the new Principal, Mr. Galloway is the right person to bring about the necessary changes to make BHS a first rate post secondary school. BHS's renovated facility and new Board of Ed team will help to improve the quality of the school district.
The school has decitated teachers and administratiors that want to see the children suceed Bloomfield High has some of the best teachers and administors that want the children to succeed.
Bloomfield high school is wonderful. Due to caring and active parents who take great pride in their schools, the state scores are superior and the sat's are rising every year. Bhs is clearly one of the top schools in the state.
My daughter attends BHS and is doing very well. The staff and Principal are approachable and eager to assist in anyway. However PTO participation by parents is very low and the same few parents come month after month.
I am a student at BHS and I believe that the administrators, faculty and students are trying to make an improvement. They are becoming more strict and focusing more on academics. providing students with free tutors, SAT study sessions and etc. Although they lack when it comes to extracurricular activities(besides sports) this school strives to give student a chance to excell. There just needs to be more organization and parent involvement. Statistics mean nothing, CAPT scores seem low but for those who tried they did very well. The school is only as good as each invividual student and BHS is working on helping every student get a great education.
This is a well taught school. The academics might be a little low but, the sports teams are awsome. They can't be stopped!
The CAPT scores for Bloomfield High School say a great deal about the school. I had planned to send my children here, but after seeing the disguting behavior of the students at a talent show, I do what a number of Bloomfield parents have to do, and that is spend the tax money for a failing school and send a child to a private school. The parents are not involved in this school
In my point of view most of the people, including faculty care mostly about sports, especially football. What Bloomfield High needs to do is focus on their academics because whether or not that student gets a schlorship they aren't going to be prepared for college or the real world. I believe that everyone, parents and students included, need to focus more on other extracurricular activities that don't evolve around sports because that factor of BHS is SERIOUSLY lacking. I don't feel that attending BHS is pushing me or aiding me in any matter shape or form.
Bloomfield High School needs help. As a graduate of the class of 2004- i stress that fact. Many have gone on to college and various other things but that is of not thanks to Bloomfield High or the town of Bloomfield. I'm not gon hate on the football team and complain that all the money goes to them even though it does.....the teachers are horrible...out of my 4 years i can count on one hand the teachers that i felt truely cared for their students and that's sad. last thing i gotta say is that I'll forever be a proud Lady Warhawk.
This school needs real help! All this school cares about is football. all the school mmoney goes to football. there is plenty other activities the school/fund-raiser money can go to. The school should be known for their academic scores to. sports is not everything. your education is. As a student of this school i see alot of bad things going on and very little good things. We seriously need to improve this school.
