Supply List

Belzer Middle School serves over 1400 students and their families in grades 6, 7, and 8.  At Belzer we believe that all students are capable of learning.  All students have talents and gifts that are unique and useful in making our school the best it can be. It is our role as professional, caring adults to model the expected behaviors, and become lifelong learners. 

Cutting Edge Education

The Belzer staff works diligently to meet the academic and affective needs of the early adolescent.  Each student is given opportunities to develop academic talents through a variety of challenging learning experiences.  Students' social and emotional growth is fostered and encouraged within a safe and supportive environment.  Two of the many unique learning opportunities available to our students are the Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) program and our SMART School partnership with Roche Diagnostics.

Belzer has been named the Outstanding Middle School in the Great Lakes Region by the United States Military Academy at West Point.  This achievement was based upon quality of instructional staff, academic achievement, diversity of student population and parental involvement.

Our school supports our district-wide, award-winning "Caring About Character" initiative in which our students are taught and encouraged to follow our "Lifeskills for Building Character."
