Cooking, computers and costumes…oh my!
Career and Technical Education (CTE) classes are thriving at BHS. With nearly 30 course options, students are provided with opportunities to explore careers in business, computer technology, robotics, theater tech, engineering, culinary arts, psychology, education, sports medicine and visual communications. CTE courses provide students with career goal planning, on the job training and leadership skills through hands-on education and training. Students are encouraged to explore career pathways based on their interests and in some cases can even earn both high school and college credit.
If you’re interested in learning more, consider attending the Career and Technical Student Organization Showcase Monday, December 9 at Bellingham High School from 6:30-8pm. CTE offerings have grown significantly over the last few years and this event will showcase student clubs, activities and classes that maximize student’s exceptional skills, attitudes and experiences. We hope to see you there!

How are we doing?
Hello Raider families, this is BHS Asst. Principal Chris Carlson. Every year, Bellingham Public Schools asks all our families, all our staff, and some students in grades 3, 5, 7, 9 and 11 to check in on what we’re doing well and what we can improve on.
The link below will take you to the family portion of the survey.
Bellingham Schools Family Survey
Then, using a computer or a smartphone, please complete by Friday, Nov. 22. The link is available on our website under “News.” The language of the survey is adjustable and can be taken in Punjabi, Spanish, Vietnamese or Russian. All your responses are anonymous. None of your responses are linked to you or your child.
You can also access the survey via the QR Code.
If you have any trouble getting to or taking the questionnaire, please contact our office at 360-676-6404. Thank you in advance for taking the time to assist us in learning more. We appreciate your time and hope to hear from each and every family.
Have a great weekend and thank you for taking the time to provide this feedback.
Warmly,
Chris Carlson
