School Fees

This is a friendly reminder that all outstanding school fees must be paid in full prior to senior checkout. Settling these balances on time ensures your student can participate in all end-of-year activities, including receiving their cap and gown, transcripts, and diploma. We appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and your continued support in helping us close out a successful school year for your senior. If you have any questions regarding your student’s account, please contact the school office. Thank you!
Here are instructions on how to view your student's fees online: Parent Portal Instructions

🚗 BHS Parking Permits 🚙
ALL students that drive to BHS are required to display a parking permit in their vehicle to park on campus. Please register your vehicle at the following link: http://bit.ly/bhspermit or use the QR code posted by the main office for your FREE parking permit (1st=free, if replacement is needed=$2.00/ea.) Once you have completed the form and it has been processed, you will be called to the office to pick up your permit. The permits are good until the student graduates and will be turned in at that time.
Why is this necessary? For the students and staff safety we need information on every vehicle here at the school. Any vehicle without a permit or who is parked in violation of other school rules or laws may receive a Parking Violation from BHS. First offense is a $20.00 fine and fines go up for second and third violations. Payment must be made to the school’s Bookkeeping Office within 14 days after receiving the violation. Continual violations or a serious violation may result in loss of parking privileges at BHS. If you have any questions, please speak with SRO Deputy, Vince Mosley or Campus Security
