GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I started attending here in 11th grade and currently as a senior, my experience since then has been okay. There aren't many options for clubs which is the disappointing part for me.

In addition to playing volleyball, my encounters within the athletics program have been small but enough to know that we have little to no funding. The School is an "easy" school, whereas the work is easy just to get you able to pass. We take Dual Enrollment, AP, Honors, etc do in fact get us ready and prepared for college. The staff make school a little fun because they treat us as if we are their kids.

Belaire High School so far is a good school, today we had our athlete's day. I was thoroughly impressed with the new coaches added to the school this year; I can see that they are dedicated to the student and their success both in school and out. The crowed was motivated by the different dance teams...
