Admission Policies
BMHS Admission Policies
The Admission Board implements the school's admissions policy, which is consistent with the school's philosophy. We seek students:
• who can succeed in and benefit from the curriculum.
• who are able to meet the school's financial and service obligations.
• whose lives, behavior, and educational goals align with the philosophy, goals, and objectives of the school.
• who have demonstrated a desire to attend the school.
Priority is given to students from Catholic partner schools in the geographic area we serve. Catholic students in non-parochial schools are given second priority. Non-Catholic students with siblings in the school are the third priority, followed by non-Catholic students from Catholic or Christian schools.
