Broken Arrow High School is the highest level of secondary education in the Broken Arrow Public Schools system, for students in tenth through twelfth grade. Combined with the Broken Arrow Freshman Academy, it is the largest high school in the state of Oklahoma.[2] Its current principal is Crystal Barber.[3]

History

The first high-school level education in Broken Arrow happened in fall 1910 with the formation of Broken Arrow Public Schools.[4] A new building was built in 1952, and the current campus opened in its original format in 1982.[5] A new football stadium was opened in 2000, replacing one used since 1930.[6]

An approved $295 million bond in 2009 resulted in the building of a new indoor training facility for the football team, as well as other groups receiving upgrades to their facilities.[7] A new science wing opened in October 2017.[8]

A 2017 plan to split BAHS into two high schools by 2021 was scrapped for a plan that focused more on career preparation.[9]
