My dislike in Belmont charter High school is not enough discpline for middle schoolers who are transition to high school. Belmont don't let students take accountability and learn how to grow on their own. My best part of high school is having the opportunities to go on school educated trip like Canda and Puerto Rico. I also like the diversity and the clubs.

I've only been attending Belmont for my senior year, but throughout this year the staff at Belmont made me feel at home. Always making sure I'm doing what is asked of me, making sure I'm always at class on time, and making sure that I am ready for life after school. Mr.Paige is the 12th grade dean. Even though he is just a dean, he acts more as a counselor. He is like a Big Brother to almost all the males in the school and always make sure they are never slacking. And Belmont is filled with staff like this. With members like this in the community, Belmont is destined to bring permanent change to the narrative of black children in the Philadelphia.
