The process for registering for high school follows:
Freshman Orientation for parents and incoming 9th grade students will be held in January to discuss general high school information and answer questions you may have. Date TBD.
Following the orientation, high school counselors will visit each public junior high school. At this time each prospective freshman will select high school courses with the high school counselors. It is imperative that parents discuss and select the elective choice with their teen before the registration meeting.
(Freshmen graduating from private junior high schools will register in Room A111 immediately following the presentation. Please have standardized test scores available to help with course placement).

A computerized list of your son/daughter’s course placement and elective choices will be mailed home in early April. Parents/Guardians will have the opportunity to revise the course selections (space dependent) by calling the assigned counselor no later than May 1st. At that time, the final course selections will become the student's freshman schedule. Absolutely no changes will be made after June 1.
A physical exam is REQUIRED for freshmen before the first day of school. A form will be mailed in the April mailing. The completed physical form MUST be returned to the school nurse prior to the first day of school in August.
Appointments will be scheduled for mid-July to receive enrollment information as well as verify residency in the BTHS West District. Schedules, fee statements, books, and lockers will be given at that time.
