STUDENT PARKING - TOWING BEGAN LAST WEEK!
Student drivers may only park in the Student Parking Lot. Lately, student vehicles have overwhelmed the staff parking lot. Beginning this week, unauthorized vehicles will be towed at the owners expense (approx $200)! UPDATE: 4 illegally parked student cars were towed last week. Families, please remember to speak with your student regarding parking expectations.
DAILY ATTENDANCE: Reporting Absences
Parents and guardians, please be sure your student finishes this school year strong with excellent daily attendance! Missing only one day of school can put a student behind for up to 3 days. If students will be absent for any reason, please remember to REPORT their absence either online in ParentConnect (24 hour access), or by calling the Main Office.

It is highly recommended that any student-athlete who plans to participate in a Fall Sport at BHS during the 2022-23 school year get your physical completed and turned in to the Belleville High School Athletic Office before Summer Break begins. TRYOUTS for all Fall Sports begin on August 8th which is approximately a month before school even starts. Physicals from this past 2021-22 school year are TOO OLD and you will NOT be allowed to participate on August 8th unless you have the new one on file. Thank you, and GO TIGERS!
Spring Sports are Winding Down!
