The countdown to graduation for Belmont High School is on.
Seniors wrapped up their final day of high school on May 22 and now anxiously await their chance to cross the stage on June 6. Many have already committed to a college or university, while others are holding off on a final decision pending acceptance from a waitlist.
This year, students were accepted into more than 120 colleges nationwide and even a few across the pond. Among the 369 seniors, there were acceptances to all eight Ivy League institutions. Students were accepted into schools in Japan, France, the Netherlands, and more.
