Senior Baby Pictures

We are excited to celebrate your student with the Class of 2024. To help us prepare for graduation events, we need to collect a picture from childhood for each graduate. Usually, the picture submitted is between the ages of 2-12. If you have not done this yet, please label your child's picture with his or her last name, and email it to seniors@bufordcityschools.org. We look forward to this exciting season and cannot wait to honor your graduate!

Post-Secondary Planning

Updates for Seniors

Regularly check this link for scholarships that are specific to BHS graduating seniors only. It will be updated throughout the semester. Seniors, if you have not completed the BHS Scholarship Application, please do so ASAP.

Additional Scholarship Information

Seniors need to make sure their social security number is updated with the school and the school has a copy of their social security card if they are going to apply for HOPE. Students can check their HOPE GPA on GAFutures.org. If you have questions about college or scholarships, please email carmen.borja@bufordcityschools.org.
