I love the location of our campus, and being able to attend high school in such a historic location has been amazing! I've been able to connect with multiple teachers over the years, and I know the staff wants the best for every single student. The teachers make navigating AP courses and busy schedules stress free.
A very connected community with something for everyone to do! The sports involment is high, raising school spirit to the max! There are countless clubs and activities, and of you don't like those offered, you can create your own for like-minded people! The school is located near amazing restaurants where students can go for lunch. The teachers are good, but the options of academics are amazing! There's a class for every interest. The diversity is very good, hosting foreign exchange students from all over the world.
Boise High School is the most diverse school academically, culturally, and artistically in the Treasure Valley. Under recent developments, the school has just finished remodeling the old gym building, expanding resources for the fine arts, as well as creating a new designated spot of school pride and spirit. Students are encouraged to utilize the plethora of classes offered, from STEM dominated areas of computer science and AP mathematics, to elective of interest such as astronomy and psychology. Additionally, Boise High's campus resides in downtown Boise, providing students access to fantastic food and social spaces across the board. I believe it's the teachers and other Boise High staff, Boise High students, and outside contributors that allow this school to thrive as a coherent, supportive, and elevated community. Beginning in August, I am beyond excited to take on senior year, and enjoy Boise High School for one last, golden year.
