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.

My experience at Belleville high school is very positive we have lots of programs for students and activities. Our sports are some of the best and our academics. They don't repare you for college well and make sure if money is a problem to help you out. Overall i would change we're all of our funding goes because certain places seem to be left out that could definitely use it. The downside of Belleville is the APs we offer aren't that extensive and I wished there was more.

The best parts of my experience were sports and the teachers. First we have great facilities and sports that you can have fun at and enjoy. I love going to football and basketball games with friends and family. I also love participating in BHS soccer because I have gained a lot of friends and knowledge. I am very blessed due to my dad being a teacher so I got the best teachers in the building every year I attended.

The school is great, but some of the faculty and the administrators are older and very hard on the lines of rules

The district, although tax funded, will not hire diverse principals or a diverse central office team; however, over 50% of students are minority. The district score reports show less than 30% if students are proficient on PSAT/SAT. Van Buren needs to clean house and get leaders in position who know...

I love the school and know in the past that they tried new ideas but we need more follow through. The band program is amazing and going to camp to learn to work together. I think the activities really help them bond. I hope in the future that they find a way to get the big sisters and big brothers m...
