Boulder High School is proud to offer the Boulder Arts Focus Pathway (BAFP). This is an exciting program for students who have a passion for the visual and performing arts to earn an endorsement on their diploma. Students who graduate with honors in the arts do so by completing courses in the arts and making the arts an integral part of their lives through opportunities both in and outside of school. Colleges, universities, and employers will recognize the creative problem solving, innovative ideas, and collaboration of this select group of emerging student visual and performing artists. Students graduating with an Art Focus Endorsement will receive an honor cord prior to graduation. BAFP students who are graduating with distinction* will receive both a cord and pin.
