Summary

Bellevue Elementary School is a public elementary school serving grades PK-5 in Bellevue, Idaho, with 216 students enrolled. It is part of the Blaine County School District, which is ranked 47th out of 96 districts in the state and has a 3-star rating from SchoolDigger.

Bellevue Elementary generally performs better than the Blaine County District and the state of Idaho on standardized tests, with 51.2% of 4th graders proficient or better in ISAT Math compared to 42.9% for the district and 49.1% for the state. However, the school has seen a decline in its statewide ranking, dropping from 97th out of 356 Idaho elementary schools in 2009-2010 to 237th out of 337 in 2024-2025. Compared to nearby schools, Bellevue performs better than Hailey Elementary and Alturas Elementary, but worse than the Ernest Hemingway STEAM School.

Despite spending more per student than the state average at $19,961 per student in 2018-2019, Bellevue Elementary's test scores are only moderately above the district and state averages, suggesting the school may not be maximizing the impact of its higher spending. Additionally, the school has faced challenges with high chronic absenteeism rates, ranging from 15.0% to 24.5% in recent years, which is linked to lower academic achievement. The school's free/reduced lunch rates, ranging from 19.31% to 36.97%, also indicate a relatively high proportion of economically disadvantaged students.
