BELAIRE HOUSES
Belaire House System Overview
The Belaire Magnet High School House System is designed to foster community, leadership, and personal growth through the embodiment of our school’s core values of Perseverance, Respect, Integrity, Discipline, Excellence, Courage and Loyalty. Each house is named after a different type of tiger, with each house symbolizing one of the 7 core values. The students and staff will work within their respective houses to promote teamwork, academic success, and a positive school culture.
Each student at Belaire Magnet High School will be assigned to a house upon entry and will remain in that house throughout their school career. The house system promotes a sense of belonging, pride, and competition. Throughout the year, houses will participate in academic challenges, athletic competitions, and community service projects. Points will be awarded for various achievements, and at the end of the year, the house with the most points will be awarded the House Cup, a symbol of ultimate victory and school pride.
This house system strengthens the bond between students and staff, reinforcing core values that prepare students to be successful, well-rounded individuals.
The Legend of the Kingdom of Belaire
House Bengal
House of Bengal Tiger, known for its unyielding Perseverance, stood firm like the rising sun after the darkest night. Their motto was "Strength in Adversity," and their coat of arms displayed a tiger emerging from a mountain, symbolizing their ability to overcome the most daunting of challenges. Whenever the kingdom faced overwhelming odds, it was House Bengal who rose to the occasion, leading with resilience and determination. No matter how thick the clouds of deceit became, they pushed through, never faltering, never giving up.
House Siberian
House of Siberian Tiger ruled with Respect as their guiding principle. Their motto, "Honor Through Actions," taught that respect was earned not by words, but through deeds. Their coat of arms depicted a regal tiger bowing its head, carrying both a sword and an olive branch, symbolizing strength balanced with peace. The members of House Siberian reminded the kingdom that only through mutual respect could true harmony be achieved. When the Darkness attempted to sow hatred and discord, it was House Siberian that restored balance by treating every soul, even the lowest, with honor and humility.
House Javan
House of Javan Tiger embodied the unwavering spirit of Integrity. With their motto, "Unyielding Spirit," and a tiger standing firm on rocky terrain as their emblem, they acted as the moral compass of the kingdom. When the Darkness tempted men and women to stray from their values with lies and deceit, it was the members of House Javan who stood firm, always choosing the path of honesty, even when it was the most difficult. They reminded the people of Belaire that true power came from doing what was right, not what was easy.
House Malayan
House of Malayan Tiger valued Discipline above all. "Balance and Harmony Bring Honor," their motto proclaimed, and their coat of arms displayed a tiger seated calmly with scales and a clock, representing order and time management. When laziness threatened to creep into the hearts of the kingdom’s people, it was House Malayan that restored focus and direction. Through disciplined work and careful planning, they ensured that the kingdom remained strong and steady, ever-prepared to confront the dangers posed by the Darkness.
House of Sumatran
House of Sumatran Tiger pursued Excellence in all they did. Their motto, "Victory Through Tenacity," and their emblem, a tiger standing victoriously on a mountain peak with a laurel wreath, reminded the people of Belaire to always strive for greatness. The Darkness often tried to make them settle for mediocrity, filling their hearts with impatience and fear of failure, but the members of House Sumatran pushed past these illusions, reaching for the stars and inspiring others to do the same.
House Caspian
House of Caspian Tiger represented Courage. "Bravery in Every Step," their motto rang, and their coat of arms featured a tiger leaping through flames. The Darkness sought to breed fear and hesitation, but House Caspian reminded the people that courage was not the absence of fear, but the will to move forward in spite of it. In times of war, in moments of great uncertainty, it was House Caspian who led the charge, refusing to back down when the stakes were highest.
House Bali
House of Bali Tiger stood as the beacon of Loyalty. Their motto, "Honor in the Journey," captured the essence of unbreakable bonds, and their coat of arms featured a tiger linked to a heart by a chain, symbolizing loyalty to one’s family, friends, and kingdom. The Darkness sought to divide the people with jealousy and greed, but House Bali was always there to remind them that together, they were stronger. Their loyalty to each other was the glue that held the kingdom together.
