Belleville School District issued the following announcement on June 7.
Saying "goodbye" is always a difficult experience, but for the Belleville High School Class of 2021, emotions ran deep on Sunday afternoon as classmates, family, friends, teachers, staff, and administrators bid farewell to our Wildcats who have displayed such grit in the face of a pandemic.
As parents and loved ones were presented with flowers and words of appreciation-- a beautiful Wildcat tradition, the tears flowed. But... they were tears of joy for these students who have each made their mark on Belleville High School and are now setting out to make their mark on the world. They are ready, willing, and able as long as they continue to believe they can do it-- because as we've witnessed, this class can do anything they set their minds to do!
Please join us this Monday morning (and as we begin summer vacation) in wishing the Class of 2021 a mighty, heartfelt "Congratulations!
