GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. 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.

The best parts of my experience was being able to play sports. It was nice being able to play with my teammates. What was helpful was the fact that my fourth period was sports so I wouldn't really fall behind. We only have four periods. We didn't really get to experience much as seniors because we didn't have a lot of events for us like we should've had. We didn't have a grad night which sucked so my senior year wasn't really as exciting as I pictured it being. I think I would just like to see more clubs and activities and more coaches because we lack coaches.

During my 4 years at Belmont High School, I've met many teachers who encourage their students to pursue a higher education to be able to live a better life. Staff and counselors are friendly with everyone they meet which grants students with a warm welcome. The only negative thing about Belmont is the lunch which is unappetizing at times.

I believe I had a good experience at Belmont the resources were there and the community is great. It is missing 1 star because of the recent online Learning I think they need to be more considerate of the work load and compassion for the students.
