Summary

Bellville High School in Bellville, TX, is a mid-sized school serving 786 students in grades 9-12, part of the Bellville Independent School District (Isd), which has a 3-star rating. The school stands out for its exceptional graduation rate of 98.9% (2023-2024), significantly higher than nearby schools like Brenham High School (93.5%) and Sealy High School (93.9%), with a near-zero dropout rate of 0.1%. This indicates a strong system for keeping students on track to graduate, though about 38% of students qualify for free or reduced lunch, reflecting moderate economic diversity.

Academically, Bellville High School excels in English Language Arts (ELA), with 65.69% proficiency in English I and 67.45% in English II (2025-2026), both well above the state averages of 55.43% and 59.88%. This is a clear strength compared to peers like Royal High School and Hempstead High School, which fall below state averages. However, the school has a persistent weakness in Algebra I, with only 21.43% proficiency versus the state average of 54.03%, the lowest among nearby comprehensive high schools. This creates a "tale of two schools" dynamic, where strong ELA and Biology scores carry the overall 60th percentile ranking, but math performance requires urgent attention.

Spending per student at Bellville ($10,841) is efficient compared to Royal High School ($13,675) and Hempstead High School ($15,430), which have lower academic rankings. Yet, the school struggles to support at-risk and special education students, with these subgroups ranking in low percentiles. For parents choosing between schools, Bellville offers a superior ELA program and high graduation rates, but families should investigate math support and subgroup outcomes to ensure a good fit.
