Signature Events
The Middle School experience at Belmont Hill is rich with tradition and opportunities that foster personal growth, leadership, and a strong sense of community. Some experiences take place in your first year, while others unfold as you advance. Highlights include the Thanksgiving Dinner Drive, a school-wide community service project led by the Third Form, where students play a pivotal role in helping families in need.
The excitement of Form I Field Day and the Form II overnight trip to Washington, D.C., provide opportunities for friendly competition and immersive learning beyond the classroom. Form outings, held at the start of the school year, are designed to build teamwork and forge lasting friendships through engaging group activities.
Beyond these signature events, students also participate in dynamic programs such as the Middle School Robotics team, which fosters innovation and problem-solving skills, and competitive sports teams available each season that build teamwork and resilience. The Middle School Speaking Contest helps students develop public speaking confidence, while Middle School Clubs encourage students to explore their passions. Theater productions invite students to step into creative roles on stage, offering a platform for artistic expression.
These experiences, along with many others, shape a well-rounded and enriching Middle School journey, creating memories and lessons that will last a lifetime.
