Open Quote BASE is a very very good middle school as well as a high school. This is my first year in middle school here & just the middle school portion of the school is HUGE the halls are quite complex and challenging to navigate through but the staff and students are really eager to help and within I would say 2 weeks you're able to navigate through the halls and get to your classes on time by yourself. The academics here are really intersting,

As part of being an EL learning eduaction school the teachers present a topic in a very interesting and abstract way and we apply what we learn into small group projects or by-yourself projects. Core classes such as math, social studies & reading provide you with unique projects that provide us with a good understanding of the topic.

BASE has a middle school elective wheel these are just some extra but required classes that helps us practice STEM (Sceince, Technology, Engineering, Math). The electives include CS Makers & Innovators, Sceince Enrichment & Green Architecture. And helps us plan on our career and what we want to do when we grow up. Overall I have made SO MANY freinds and the school is very welcoming & I strongly recommend other students to apply :) Close Quote

Open Quote I am a student of Health and Science School of Beaverton. While attending Health and Science teachers at this school strived to make myself and my peers better individuals. As you may see online H.S.2 is dramatically underrated. I can't say enough how much I love this school. From the murals on the walls to solar panels on the roof this school has benefited me academically and mentally and has changed the way I will view schools forever. Close Quote
