BELLEVILLE HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC HALL OF FAME

Belleville High School has established a long-standing tradition of academic and athletic excellence.  We have had many graduates who distinguished themselves both in the classroom and in athletic competition. 

It is the purpose of the Belleville High School Athletic Hall of Fame to recognize such individuals and teams who have, through their performance, conduct, and achievement, brought credit and honor to themselves and Belleville High School.  Their public example will hopefully serve to inspire future graduates to perform and serve in the same spirit.

The Belleville High School Hall of Fame Committee invites annual nominations for candidates for the Belleville High School Athletic Hall of Fame.  This award honors individuals and teams whose deeds and character exemplify outstanding achievement in athletics to the school and community.  The honoree’s accomplishments spirit are worthy of recognition and have inspired praises and gratitude among his or her peers.
