We’re excited to give our students the opportunity to learn more about the clubs and organizations available at Belle High School!

During Club Signing Day, representatives from each club had a table set up where students stopped by, asked questions, learned what the club is all about, and found out how to get involved.

We would like to thank Andrew and Elizabeth Metz for purchasing Mr. Hannah’s math classes new calculators.
