A good school to go to and there is a lot of in school activities like soccer, football and other sports and there is also a swimming pools indoor and outdoor during the hot and humid summers and it's an average school.

I enjoy attending school but this school is a bit more difficult to learn in. There are mostly subs working in classes, so you truly aren't learning much. Funding doesn't get spread equally among sports so some are better off than others.

I liked Belen High School because I made great friends and like to think I got a good education. There are definitely things I wish would change but I tried to focus on my studies and get done what I need to get done. If you are willing to focus and put the effort in the teachers are willing to help you.
