BUFFALOES FOREVER BHS-RCHS ALUMNI ASSOCIATION The goal of the Belleville High School / Republic County High School Alumni Association is to support the school, connect alumni to the school and each other, and preserve the history of our communities. Your generosity, as tax deductible contributions, provides scholarships to graduating seniors and funds for school improvement projects. 2015 donors enabled the Alumni Association Scholarship Committee to grant almost $6,000 in scholarships. In addition, $800 was allotted to the Stadium Complex Improvement with Alumni generosity. Thank you for your support of these projects and of the district. We have some very talented, intelligent and amazing students at Republic County High School and are proud of each one of them! Proud to be a Buffalo forever!
