BHS School Profile for 2010-2011
In BHS's constant pursuit for academic excellence, we are extremely fortunate to have the opportunity to provide two new members to our Buford High School faculty to help with our increased enrollment for the 2010-2011 school year. The addition of these faculty members will drastically decrease class sizes in several areas. Students will receive new schedules during an advisement session before first period on Thursday, August 26th. Due to the re-scheduling, teachers will be re-entering grades. Therefore, PowerSchool will not be available until August 31st. We appreciate your patience and support as we all seek the best for our students.
If you have any questions about schedules or other issues, please email Dr. Banks Bitterman at banks.bitterman@bufordcityschools.org
