Business Careers High School
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Northside Independent School District and the business community combined their resources in 1991 to create the Business Careers High School. The school attracts students who want to study business and other related fields. It is a "school within a school" located on the campus of Oliver Wendell Holmes High School in San Antonio, Texas. The current enrollment is 573 students.
BCHS will be the first high school in the greater San Antonio area that will have wireless communication. The one-to-one laptop initiative will offer all students and teachers at BCHS continuous access to a wide range of software, electronic documents, the Internet, and other digital resources for teaching and learning.
LT Kaluza, a teacher at Holmes High School as well at Business Careers High School, built the Kamzik Tower. He teaches world geography honors.
One on one attention is something Business careers offers along with many other activities such as Academy of Finance, Business Professionals of America, and much much more.
Business Careers High School, since it is connected to Oliver Wendell Holmes High School, has a widely known Academic Decathlon team. The team's efforts have managed to pull off some great results in the past few years. At the state competition the team has managed to come in 3rd ('04/'05), 2nd ('05/'06) and 5th ('06/'07). The most notable team members of the '06/'07 competition include Jon-Ross Trevino, Redmond-Craig Anderson (Valedictorian, '07), and Johnathan Diaz.
The BCHS teachers will be studying Differentiated Instruction and Tiered assignments at the February 13 Pull-Out day.
