I love the tools and resources to BCS students to ensure student success! During the summers, there are enrichment programs designed to give students additional help, or to get ahead in the next school year. I also love the BCS provides the Birmingham Promise Program which covers tuition for many AL schools. I also love the amount of extra curricular activities the schools provide.
The environment was great. I enjoyed every year that I attended a Birmingham city school. The teachers were great but some in highschool didn’t teach. I did not experience a lot of bullying, but that’s to be expected from every school. I graduated from Ramsay highschool and am now enjoying UAB. I highly encourage that everyone attended a Birmingham city school because it’s nothing like any other city school.
I have been enrolled in Birmingham City Schools since kindergarten. I love it! You get to experience new things and have an excellent learning experience. The teachers are easy to talk to and they will give you feed back based off your accomplishments. Birmingham City Schools really cares about the students education.
