We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Belfry High School has been a great school for me. The best part for me was the teachers and how much they cared for the students and got us prepared for the next step in life. The worst part was not anything.

Belfry High School is a very well-rounded school considering the area it is from. Students are offered many opportunities not otherwise offered in their area but are also limited to a select amount of classes and extracurriculars. Schools in more populated areas have more options for students and more funding for those programs to excel.
