Bonar Law Memorial School (BLMS) provides service to grade 9–12 students in Five Rivers, New Brunswick. BLMS serves approximately 400 students from Five Rivers and the surrounding communities. The cultural make-up of the school is varied and includes representation from the local English and Acadian populations. By far the single largest population, however, is First Nation, with representation from Elsipogtog, Indian Island and Bouctouche Federal Reserves. The indigenous students comprise approximately 52% of the total population.
BLMS receives students from two feeder schools: Eleanor W. Graham Middle School and Elsipogtog School. Given the regional nature of BLMS, the vast majority of students are bused to school.
BLMS has a teaching staff of 34 teachers (this number includes two Guidance Counselor and two Methods and Resource teachers) and twenty educational assistants who meets the needs of the student population.
