Avery Elementary's chronic absenteeism rates have ranged from 15.6% to 22.9% over the past few years, significantly higher than the state and district averages. The school's test scores on the NSCAS assessments are also generally below the Bellevue Public Schools district and state averages across grade levels and subject areas.
