Bradford High School

As a graduate of this school several years ago and have had siblings attend the school as well, I can say that the educational quality of the school is a joke. Many students that graduate from Bradford High School are not prepared for college. Like a previous person said, they claim that there is no money for extra-curricular activities, yet there is always money for the basketball program. If you want a small town school, that is fine, but be warned, you're going to get a small town education and not prepared for life after high school.

This school is absolutly amazing!

I am currently a student at Bradford Hight School(BHS), and yes, I agree with the facts that BHS has its dark spots. Money becomes a factor when teachers want to offer more/better classes or more extra physical activies. Teachers at BHS do go above and beyond for their students, offering free afterschool tutoring to any student and take time out of thier day for them.If your child isnt passing its because of effort. They either dont want help or dont care about school. Period. Students develope great relationships and personal skills because BHS is such a small school.

I am currently from Bradford and i graduate in a few years. Our schools have very little money, the food is non nutritionist, I feel that when i go to college i won't be ready for it. There are some teachers who are good and some who need to go back to teaching schools. I feel that the uniforms are stupid we should be able to wear what we feel like. We should be able to express our personality. The teachers dont have to wear them at all..... Boys get in trouble for the smallest thing in the world, like when they dont have their shirts tucked in... So coming from my point of view this school is Bad..

I would not recommend sending your child to this school. It is old, outdated and lacks any type of education other than the old traditional. The music program is minimal, while there is a chorus, no music appreciation is taught or music history for that matter. The art program is non existent, when asked about the hiring of an art teacher at a school board meeting, the response was, 'there is no money' but money is spent on new uniforms and warm up clothes for basketball team.....send your child somewhere else....gibson county or milan would be better choices

I have a child who graduated from this school in 2002 and he was not ready for college when he started. As far as the classes offered for the children, it is lacking in some areas and I can understand a parents frustration. If a family has a talented child, without private funds , the talent goes unnoticed or undeveloped.

I am the parent of a student who will be graduating in 2010. I have to agree, this school is lacking in many of the extra curricular activities. I have many friends who have children who have graduated and the general consensus is the kids are unprepared for college. I have to say that this school is below par. Milan School District is not far off and a much better school district.

I am currently a student at BHS and can honestly say it is one of the best schools I have attended. I will be entering the 11th grade this fall and look forward to completing the cirriculum and graduating a Red Devil. The teachers go out of their way to make sure the students learn what they need to and more. Our school board is constantly coming up with new innovative ways to broaden the student body's horizon. We have excellent opportunities for scholarships and the absolute worst thing our school board could do would be to affiliate us with the Gibson County Special School District. I have spent my best years at BHS, and hope to have one more. Thank you for your time.

I am a graduate of the class of 2007 from Bradford High School and I personally think that it is the best school anyone could ever ask for! The teachers are really helpful, friendly, and always willing to help no matter when, where, or what time of day they are always there!!!! I spent everyday for the last 13 years of life there and I couldn't ask for somewhere better to be everyday!!!!
