Welcome to Broomfield High School
Broomfield High School
Broomfield High School is a school within the Boulder Valley School District (BVSD). Located in Broomfield, Colorado, this tuition-free co-educational public school serves approximately 1,700 diverse students in grades 9-12.
School Calendar -- Granite Peaks League
The challenge for schools today is to meet the needs of students for tomorrow – to ready our youth for living and working beyond high school in a world that will be different from both the present and past.
We believe the high school experience is a vital, transitional stage in students’ lives as they move from adolescence into adulthood. During this time, skills, attitudes, and aspirations for life are forming. Our mission at Broomfield High School is to further develop the intellectual, vocational, creative, aesthetic, and physical capabilities of our students. Our commitment is to: provide the best possible learning opportunities for students; help students develop the knowledge, skills, and responsibility needed for a changing world beyond the high school years; and assist students in their emotional and social growth. We believe that a quality staff is the key to providing quality education. We are dedicated to the development of professional and personal skills of all of our staff members. We encourage the cooperation and involvement of parents and other community members in our educational process

Principal's Message: Welcome to the 24-25 School Year!
Principal’s Message
Welcome to the 24-25 School Year!
It is exciting to have our Broomfield Eagles back in the building as they begin another academic year. To our returning Eagles - welcome back! To our Class of 2028, I am so happy to have you join our Broomfield family.
Our motto is BHS - We Live It! Be Responsible, Honor Yourself and Others, and Strive for Excellence. We expect great things from our students and always want them to do their best. From the first few days of school, I have observed students taking their work seriously and using their free time wisely. As we work together and build positive relationships with each other, I know that we will continue to excel in all facets of school life.
Parents/Guardians: I encourage you to get involved. Our weekly emails will provide information to you about upcoming events. I look forward to seeing you there as we come together to support our students with their activities. While on campus, take time to see all the improvements we have made through our bond project. In addition to student events, parents/ guardians are invited to join us in our school based committees: Athletic Booster Club, Band Boosters, SAC (School Accountability Committee), and FET (Family and Educators Together) to name a few. We need your voices as we continue to make Broomfield High School the best it can be.
Each time I speak, I always insert “It’s a Great Day to be an Eagle!” into my talk. As I begin my 25th year as principal at Broomfield High, I know how lucky I have been to get to be involved with our Broomfield Eagle community. Join me in making this another wonderful year for our Eagles!
Sincerely,
Ginger

While we continuously work to be inclusive, build positive school cultures, and support students, we also recognize that despite our best efforts, there are times when students require additional support.
