Student

"During my experience in Belvedere I was doing good in school because of the amount of people there was. A lot of interaction was happening and talking to more people was important to have school spirit and just doing your homework with someone. There was enough space for students in classrooms and enough restrooms in each building. I liked that students were divided into their each academy like I was in Magnet classes. They provide good musical arts programs and students perform their talent after mastering the class."
