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.

Bel Air High School has been a big part of my life this last 3 years. If I had not chosen BA to be my high school many things would be different, I am deeply thankful for having BA as the instruction that saw me growth. Even thought administration does not work on the most efficient way the teachers at BA are amazing, so dedicated to their students and always willing to help in and out of school.

The best experience at bel air high school is probably my football years because I was part of a group and worked with others. My worst experience is probably when I was behind on credits and had to work hard to catch up.

I would like to see better food choices and diversity I have to eat off campus to eat something new or better than what they serve. I've had school lunch half of my sophomore year and decided to start eating off campus.
