Your High School Years Are What You Make Them . . . In our four years at Bloomington High School, we, the Class of 162 learned the meaning of a high school career. For many of us registration was the premiere glimpse of the high school. As we filled out the necessary forms to become students at BHS, our eyes wandered about giving us concern as to whether we would be able to find our way around.
