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.

Id like to see more community and parent involvement. The teachers need to get kids more ready for college not just give them the order of the answers to study. Plagirism and cheating needs to be taken more seriously as you can get arrested and expelled from college with this. Overall greets small everyone knows everyone school.

Bell city was the best school I have ever attended. I always had trouble keeping friends or keeping my grades or attendance up at other schools, but moving to bell city for high school changed that completely. The teachers were great help and the environment was great. Positive vibes everywhere. I wouldn't be where I am today if it wasn't for attending bell city.
