Summary:
The Bellville Independent School District (Isd) is served by a single high school, Bellville High School, which enrolls 786 students in grades 9-12 and has maintained a consistent 3-star rating from SchoolDigger, ranking in the 60th percentile of Texas high schools for the 2025-2026 school year.
Bellville High School demonstrates a clear split in academic performance. The school excels in English Language Arts and Biology, significantly outperforming the state average in English I Reading (65.69% proficient vs. 55.43% state) and English II Reading (67.45% vs. 59.88% state), as well as in Biology (74.09% vs. 70.51% state). However, there is a critical weakness in mathematics, with only 21.43% of students proficient in Algebra I, which is 32.6 percentage points below the state average. This persistent math challenge stands in stark contrast to the school's exceptional graduation rate of 98.9% and a dropout rate of just 0.1%, suggesting that while the school is highly effective at keeping students on track to graduate, it faces a significant gap in ensuring all students master foundational math skills.
With a student-teacher ratio of 14.5:1 and per-student spending of $10,841, the school has reasonable resources. The data raises important questions about whether these resources are being optimally directed to address the Algebra I deficiency, perhaps through targeted intervention programs or specialized math instruction. Overall, Bellville High School offers a strong supportive environment with excellent retention and standout performance in English and science, but parents should be aware of the significant math proficiency gap that requires focused attention.
