Work Permits
Minors aged 14 and up are able to seek employment in Vermont without a work permit. The only time a permit is necessary is if the minor is seeking to work during school hours and is under the age of 16. For more information on obtaining a work permit at the age of 14 or 15 to work during school hours, contact the State of Vermont Department of Labor, Wage and Hour Division, at 802-951-4083.

Why BHS?
The purpose of a high school education, it is about growth both academically and socially. What BHS offers, perhaps better than any other Vermont school, is the academic and social breadth that comes from having and serving a very diverse community. Teachers have learned to differentiate their instruction and to think deeply about their curriculum in order to represent all of the students in their classrooms. Students hear multiple diverse and varied narratives and perspectives in ways that deepen their understanding of others and the world. In terms of preparing them to live in the larger world outside of Vermont, this is essential. As if that weren’t enough, BHS students have the ability to engage in programs in our technical center without having to lose time traveling. We are able to meet the needs of diverse learners with our comprehensive curriculum while supporting multiple kinds of activities reflective of the interests of our population and community.

Honors Classes
At BHS, students are heterogeneously grouped in ninth grade Humanities and can opt for an honors designation by opting in and engaging in additional work. In later years, students can sign up for honors level classes or take AP classes. With regards to math, if students have been recommended by their middle school math teacher for Freshman Geometry they can sometimes take Algebra 2 as well but this is sometimes dependent on availability of space in those classes.
