About us

Our programs comprise K-12 classrooms; online learning; a homeschool program; a high school STEM program that focuses on agriculture, science and the environment; a rigorous academic academy; and a high school for self-directed learners. By focusing on best instructional practices, technology, and facilities, BGPS teaches students to think critically and creatively and prepares them for success after high school. Low teacher-to-student ratios let staff impart practical skills and knowledge to students within the framework of state learning standards and social-emotional learning. Our students achieve state test scores that are consistently above state average.
