My experience at Bellevue was a very great experience. Everyone around you is always very respectful and help out when needed. I would say one of my favorite times at Bellevue would have to be when I was playing or doing sports and activities with your friends. I feel like being part of a team really helps you connect to people that you wouldn't normally talk to on an everyday basis. It helps you get out of your comfort zone. And really be able to connect with diffrent types of people and make new connections and friends in that way.

Our school is in a relatively safe town, so we don't feel the need to have police or any armed security guards at our school. Bullying is an issue, but it's not nearly as bad as most other schools. The school nurse is only at the high school in the morning and then she goes to the elementary for the rest of the day.

The best part about BHS is that mostly everyone gets along with everyone, there isn't a huge bullying issue in this school.
