Vigor — Vig ér Excels In BHS Academics The vigor for learning fills BHS. School is a place for learning, but the students must yearn for knowledge. At BHS they do, although it is not easy to come by. The surroundings and the faculty make learning a pleasant as well as a ready challenge. BHS prepares its students well to journey into the world or to work for them- selves or to go on to higher education. This is why there is a good record of gradu- ates. Whatever the future holds for its students, BHS does not fail them in any way. It is meaningless to have knowledge and not be able to put it to practical use. This everyday side of learning is also put before BHS’ers. Whether for the business world, the college campus, the farm, or the home, the teachers are well qualified to present each subject to its fullest. High is the respect of education. Just as high are the standards of learning. These are traditions BHS students are proud to keep alive. After completing his high school career, each student knows that this vigor leaves him a keen sense of accomplish- ment and an awareness that will serve him well.
