Summary

Bellevue JrSr High School is a small, rural public school in Bellevue, MI, serving 281 students in grades 7 through 12 as part of the Bellevue Community Schools district.

Bellevue has shown a remarkable recovery story in recent years. After a difficult 2020-2021 school year when the school ranked in the 8th percentile statewide, graduation rates have climbed from 60% to 82.4%, and the dropout rate has plummeted from 11.1% to just 1.7% — far better than the state average of 7.1%. Chronic absenteeism has also improved for three straight years, dropping to 24.5%, which is now below the state average. The school's current state ranking sits in the 42nd percentile, a drop from its recent peak of the 56th percentile, but still a significant improvement from earlier struggles. One notable strength is 11th-grade science, where 38.1% of students are proficient — above the state average and better than nearby Charlotte Senior High School (27.1%) and Maple Valley JrSr High School (25.5%).

However, math remains a major concern. Proficiency rates are dramatically below state averages at every grade level — for example, only 16.3% of 11th graders are proficient in SAT math compared to the state's 26.5%. This creates a stark contrast with the school's science performance. The school also spends more per student ($16,539) than nearby districts like Olivet High School ($15,486) and Marshall High School ($14,208), yet Olivet — just 5.6 miles away — ranks in the 75th percentile with a 92.4% graduation rate and much stronger math scores. While Bellevue has shown it can serve its economically disadvantaged students well (earning a 4-star rating for this group in 2023-2024), that effectiveness has faded recently. For parents, Bellevue offers a supportive, improving environment with strong science instruction and excellent student retention, but math achievement is an area that clearly needs attention.
