BHS Student Handbook: Counseling-Records

Transfer of Student Records

As part of the registration process for new students, a Release of Records form is provided. This form is forwarded by BHS to the former school. Upon receipt of the request, high school academic and health information is exchanged. Outstanding fines will delay this process.

BHS Student Handbook: Counseling-Withdrawal

Withdrawal From School

When a student moves out of the district or voluntarily withdraws from school, consent from a parent or guardian must be given. The student and parent may start the process by conferring with their counselor and obtaining forms from the Registrar. Arrangements to return all books and pay fines must be made. Failure to complete this procedure will result in a delay in the transfer of a student’s records to other schools.
