AP EXAMS
Current AP students taking the AP exams in May, are eligible to be exempt from their S2 final exams if they earn a score of C or better in their AP class.
5ESSENTIALS SURVEY - 02.24.2023
The 5Essentials Survey identifies five indicators that lead to improved outcomes for all students, including improved attendance and larger test score gains.
The five indicators that positively affect school success are:
- Effective Leaders
- Collaborative Teachers
- Involved Families
- Supportive Environments
- Ambitious Instruction
Research derived from the Five Essentials for School Success has proven that schools strong on at least three of the 5Essentials are 10 times more likely to improve student outcomes. The Illinois 5Essentials Survey is administered online by Chicago Impact at the University of Chicago on behalf of the Illinois State Board of Education. Data and indicators are a result from an anonymous administration of the survey instrument.
BHS will administer the 5Essentials survey on Friday, February 24th. We will be running a special schedule that day to facilitate the administration. If you would like your high school student to NOT participate in the survey, please print out the attached opt out form and return to the BHS main office by noon on February 22nd.
