Summary

Belleaire Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-6 in Bellevue, Nebraska, with 310 students. The school is part of the Bellevue Public Schools district, which is ranked 98 out of 115 districts in the state and has a 1-star rating from SchoolDigger. Belleaire Elementary has consistently been ranked in the bottom half of Nebraska elementary schools, with a 1-star rating indicating below-average performance.

Belleaire Elementary faces several challenges that may be impacting its academic performance. The school has high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 18.1% to 22.9% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state average. Its test scores are consistently below the Bellevue Public Schools district and the state averages across all grade levels and subject areas. Additionally, Belleaire Elementary has a high percentage of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, ranging from 61.54% to 68.44% over the past few years, suggesting a high proportion of students from low-socioeconomic backgrounds.

When comparing Belleaire Elementary to the other elementary schools in the Bellevue Public Schools district, it consistently underperforms. The nearby schools, such as Avery Elementary School, Fort Crook Elementary School, Lemay Elementary School, and Wake Robin Elementary School, generally have higher test scores, lower chronic absenteeism rates, and better overall rankings from SchoolDigger. The district may need to closely examine the factors contributing to Belleaire's struggles and implement strategies to support the school in better serving its students.
