BCS is blessed to have a Senior High chapter of the National Honor Society. The purpose of our honor society is to advance Christian scholarship, challenge Christian leadership, honor Christian character, and stimulate Christian service. Members must maintain a 3.5 cumulative GPA (on an unweighted 4.0 scale) to be inducted into and to remain a member of the society. An NHS induction ceremony is held in the fall of each school year. Society members select service projects, such as peer tutoring to fulfill their service requirement. At the graduation ceremony, Senior High Honor Society members are provided with a special honor stole to wear to honor their achievement. We believe the National Honor Society makes a positive difference in the lives of individuals and in the spirit of the community and BCS.
