SADD is one of the older clubs that
Belvidere High School has to offer the student population. However, the ideals
have seemed to have fallen through the cracks while the idea of SADD Night has

tradition, yet the reason as to why it’s held has been left to the wayside....

Last
Friday, I had the pleasure of attending STAND’s “Open-Mic Night,” a talent show
of sorts that raised money for the cause of genocide prevention. There were

On
December 21, 2009, the Belvidere High School Student Government went caroling
at the Care Center of Lopatcong. Most
elected seniors and a few juniors attended the field trip in the hopes of

Tuesday,
January 5th was the kick off of the 2010 Special Olympics, and it
started with a bang! This year these very special students are enthused to be

tournament. One delightfully special thing about Belvidere staff and students
is the amount of time, care and love they show these children....

December
is the end of fall sports but the beginning of Belvidere High School’s winter
sports program. The sports this year include boys and girls basketball of
all levels (freshmen, junior varsity, and varsity), wrestling and swimming. As
a high school, Belvidere is very competitive in the athletics program. All of
the coaches are getting the kids into shape and the kids are working hard to
achieve their physical goals. In order to do this, they need good equipment,
encouraging coaches and a mind set on only one thing: practice....

If you
have attended an instrumental concert put on by Belvidere High School, it is
most likely that you have heard of Belvidere’s Jazz Band. Time after time
during the winter season, Jazz Band performed at a level exceeding
expectations. They were called on myriad times throughout the month of
December, even performing three times in a span of four days. They are the premier
instrumental ensemble at Belvidere High School....

In the
month of December, Christmas was in the air at Belvidere. Students gave away candy canes to their
friends, traded presents, and sang and played instruments in the holiday
concerts. Some even had their pictures taken
with Mr. Gast as Santa! Belvidere’s Leo Club,
advised by Mrs. Judy Black, got into the Christmas spirit by hosting a
Christmas party for children with disabilities and their families....
