My child goes there now. It is one of the best schools that I have seen in Bpt. The best school in bpt is a school that is called koble. it is a catholic school. bullard havens is not.. i was looking on a website yesterday and found out that it is ranked number 70 in the country in technical schools. it is in the top 100. my child went to central and got good grades and then went to bullard havens and got honors every marking period. my youngest is a freshmen and has gotten honors 2 marking priods out of three so far. tyhe last marking period he just has to work a little bit harder to make honors the 4th marking period. but, it could have more activities.

Bullard Havens is a great school I went there during my freshman year and everyday I regret leaving. It's very comfortable and the teachers are wonderful and caring. However, I think they should offer more activities.

About the tests


In 2008-2009 Connecticut used the Connecticut Academic Performance Test (CAPT) to test students' skills in reading, writing, science and math in grade 10. The CAPT is a standards-based test, which means it measures how well students are mastering specific skills defined for each grade by the state of Connecticut.
