The Halls of Excellence program was initiated in 1999 to recognize graduates of Bellevue (Ohio) Senior High School who have distinguished themselves and made the world a better place for others. The achievements of these honorees represent the true and eternal legacy of the Bellevue education. They represent their families, friends, and teachers – all who played an integral role in their development.
Those recognized in the Halls of Excellence have demonstrated success in numerous endeavors –philanthropy, business, medicine, science, community service, leadership, and education – to name a few of the recognized fields. Many of these recipients have had a significant impact on the world we live in today. They chose to lead so that others may follow.
It is our sincere hope that the current and future students of Bellevue Senior High School aspire to someday be recognized in such a noble fashion. If they do, then this program of recognition will prove invaluable to furthering the fundamental purpose of the educational process.
The Halls of Excellence is totally funded by community minded businesses, organizations and individuals. Donations or bequests to this program may be made by contacting Bellevue School Treasurer Nancy Beier at 419-484-5002.
