GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The thing about Bowie High School is that we're a very close community, we all care for each other. A thing that should change is how parents should be more involved in there kids education

I'm a current sophomore at the school and the thing that fascinates me is the cultural diversity we have in the school and regards the language barriers we still manage to do well in school and get good grades.
