Game Day Magic

It’s more than high-fives and handshakes — it’s smiles, confidence, and the kind of role-model moments our kids will remember forever. On Fridays in the fall, our football boys line the halls to cheer on the elementary kids, and our cheerleaders spread the energy through the junior high & high school. The little ones look up to them, the older ones feed off the energy, and our athletes are reminded why they play — for their school, their teammates, and their community.

Jazz Band State Champions

In April 2025, the Belmond-Klemme High School Jazz Band captured the Class 2A State Championship title, showcasing their exceptional talent and dedication. Among the standout achievements, two of our musicians earned Outstanding Performer awards: Andrick Rodriguez on bass and Callum Sifert on drums. Andrick was further honored as the Outstanding Overall Performer across all classes—selected from over 1,200 musicians statewide. Congratulations to our incredible jazz band!

BK Esports State SSBU Class 1A State Champs 2025

Beyond the controllers and competition, it’s focus, teamwork, and pride in representing something bigger than themselves. This championship season tells a powerful story: an undefeated run without dropping a single map, two BK layer finishing among the top 8 in the state, and a title earned after years of state appearances. Every practice, every match, and every moment of trust built between teammates led to this achievement. The BK Esports team showed that success comes from discipline, communication, and supporting one another, proving that leadership and school pride thrive in every arena.

Why be a Bronco?

Feels like Family

When I had the opportunity to come back to work in my home district, I was welcomed with open arms. This place is my home and it feels like family. The community truly cares about the students and the school and will support us in any way they can. I am so grateful to be a part of a community and school that works together and cares for each other. ~ Laura Pals, School Counselor

Being a Bronco

Because a Bronco strives to be all that they can be. ~ Gary Berkland, School Board Member

Community Spirit

The community spirit in Belmond is unparalleled; backgrounds and differences aside, we all breathe this town and pull together for our kids. It’s such a beautiful place to live and such a special thing to be a part of. “Let us put our minds together and see what life we can make for our children.” ~ Melissa Arnold, School Board Member
