Summary

Bellaire Elementary in Hurst, TX, is a PK-6 school in the Hurst-Euless-Bedford Independent School District (Isd) serving 672 students, and it has shown a clear upward trend over the past decade, now earning a 3-star rating after years of below-average performance.

Bellaire’s most standout feature is its exceptional program for Gifted and Talented students, which ranked in the 99th percentile statewide in 2025-2026—a dramatic improvement from the 36th percentile the year prior. This is a remarkable strength that no nearby school matches. However, the school serves a student population with a very high level of economic disadvantage, with 86.9% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch, the highest rate among nearby schools like Hurst Hills Elementary (58.75%) and River Trails Elementary (58.43%). Despite this challenge, Bellaire is notably effective at supporting its low-income students, who ranked in the 74th percentile statewide and earned a 4-star rating. This suggests the school’s strategies are successfully mitigating poverty-related challenges for many students.

Bellaire faces critical challenges, particularly in upper grades. While 3rd graders scored well above district and state averages in Reading and Math, 6th graders scored dramatically below—only 36.36% proficient in Reading versus the district’s 65.61%, and 35.06% in Math versus 57.4%. Additionally, 5th-grade Science scores are a major concern, with only 14.49% proficient in 2024-2025, the lowest among all nearby schools. Performance with English Language Learners is also inconsistent, dropping from the 65th percentile to the 28th percentile in one year. While Bellaire is a school on the rise, it still trails higher-performing neighbors like Trinity Lakes Elementary and Stonegate Elementary, which consistently rank in the 70th-80th percentiles. Addressing the drop-off in upper elementary grades and stabilizing support for English Language Learners will be key to its continued improvement.
