Our goal is to provide a safe and celebratory experience for our seniors under our current circumstances.

We miss all of our families and students, and I know students miss seeing their classmates and teachers. Although we can agree the safety of our children and staff is paramount, Governor Baker's order to close schools for the remainder of the year was still tough news to take. The news is especially hard for our incredible Belmont High School Senior Class of 2020. Belmont is a resilient and wonderful community, and the school department thanks everyone for their constructive input and patience as we navigate through this challenging time.
