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.

Bellevue High School used to have unbreakable Wolverine spirit and a lot of school pride. Unfortunately, since becoming open enrollment, the camaraderie has fizzled and students are here to get an education, nothing more. Incoming parents don't care to get involved or give back. It is sad to see the school I love go downhill rapidly. The academics are great though.

If your skin is brown, if your income is low, you will be discriminated against by some of the school staff and the kids of obviously horrible parents.

All staff and teachers are very nice and genuine. Most students grow up knowing each other so it was a comfortable atmosphere.

Great school. This has been the best school I’ve ever been to. Basically, all you need to do is to avoid the sketchy/ bad kids and just focus on your schoolwork and academics. Try not to be involved in too much drama; surround yourself with people who share similar views and values! This school make...

I purchased my house to be in this school district and school. I have sold my house, I want nothing to do with this school for my other kids. I'm lucky to be able to have the resources to do so. Many others are just stuck.
