Journalism

Senior High is proud of it's tradition in journalistic publication. The Bronc Express (formerly the Kyote) has been in print for over 70 years and is the only Billings public high school to still maintain a student run newspaper. Additionally, the Senior High annual yearbook dates back to the school's founding in 1940.
