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 is one of the most welcoming and supportive schools in Iowa. The teachers go to great lengths to make sure their students succeed. No matter who you are you have an unbelievable support system. The atmosphere at Bellevue is amazing. At every event you see a small community come together to celebrate the success of Bellevue students. As a student at Bellevue I can tell you that I am forever grateful that this is the school I will be graduating from. The second you start school at Bellevue they are setting you up to be a leader after high school. I have gotten so many opportunities while attending school at Bellevue. They offer things that most schools in our area don't. This includes Bellevue BIG and Work Based Learning. These are both programs that I got the chance to be apart of and they truly are setting me up to be a successful individual after graduation.

My experience at Bellevue was a very great experience. Everyone around you is always very respectful and help out when needed. I would say one of my favorite times at Bellevue would have to be when I was playing or doing sports and activities with your friends. I feel like being part of a team really helps you connect to people that you wouldn't normally talk to on an everyday basis. It helps you get out of your comfort zone. And really be able to connect with diffrent types of people and make new connections and friends in that way.

I would like for the school to put more effort into making everyone feel included. There is a big bullying issue that the staff does not do anything to fix.
