We are proud to welcome our new members into the largest-ever NAHS chapter at BBCHS!
            
 
ABOUT NAHS:  In 1978, the National Art Education Association began the NAHS program specifically for high school students grades 10-12, for the purpose of inspiring and recognizing those students who have shown an outstanding ability in art. The NAHS also strives to aid members in working toward the attainment of their highest potential in art areas, and to bring art education to the attention of the school and community.  The BBCHS Art Department established our chapter of the NAHS in 2005.
