Bowling Green High School Medical Arts students performed live venipunctures today on faculty and staff volunteers. Certification as a phlebotomy technician requires a minimum of thirty venipunctures and ten capillary or finger sticks on live individuals. BGHS Medical Arts students will be eligible for the CPT exam in May and certification after graduation.
The future of healthcare is in good hands!

From advanced courses and career pathways to the arts and student life, the Class of 2030 visited Bowling Green High School today for the My Options Expo. BGHS Student Ambassadors led groups through a 15-station rotation to explore the many different opportunities offered on campus.

The Expo included several hands-on activities around the building, including the Medical Arts Academy with phlebotomy, nursing, and EMT, as well as the HVAC and Industrial Maintenance Labs. Students also learned about paid internships with BGISD in areas such as Information Technology and Early Childhood Education.

Families of 8th grade students are invited to the BGHS Performing Arts Center tonight at 6:00 pm to meet teachers and learn more!

🥬 “Farm”-to-Table lunch at BGHS! 🥗
The BGHS Environmental Club is harvesting lettuce they’ve grown to be used in the school cafeteria.

The Environmental Club purchased a hydroponics chamber with grant money received from the TVA School Uplift Program. Students are growing lettuce and basil and today, learned about food safety from Director of Food Services Operations Dalla Emerson before harvesting the first plants to be used on the school’s salad bar.
