Bothell Senior High School is located in Bothell, Washington and is one of three high schools in the Northshore School District.It is fed primarily by students from Canyon Park Junior High School and Skyview Junior High School. Nearly 1700 students in grades 10 through 12 are currently enrolled. A number are enrolled in special programs, such as "Tech Prep" and "Running Start," which can provide college credit along with high school credit; others are benefiting from the vocational training available in a variety of satellite programs which are offered through Northshore School District through NEVAC (a cooperative of seven local school districts), and through Lake Washington Technical College.

The school mascot is currently a Cougar. The school's newspaper is appropriately named The Catamount.

Former students include U.S. Senator Patty Murray[1], comedian Kyle Cease, 2001 Rhodes Scholar Brian Nelson, Death Cab For Cutie's Chris Walla, and the almighty Bruce Lee.

The Bothell High campus is also the home of Northshore Performing Arts Center, a 600-seat theatre. Voters approved funding the building in 2002, and it opened with a high school concert on November 19, 2005[2].

Bothell High School is home to a strong and diverse music program. For the past 8 years, under the direction of Director Kevin Clayton, the school has excelled. The Wind Ensemble and Orchestra travel around the region and have won numerous competitions. Though these classical groups are the main music focus, Bothell High School also has a top notch Jazz Program.[3]
