Summary:

The Bellevue School District is a high-performing Washington district with 30 schools serving grades PK-12, ranking in the 93rd percentile statewide.

The district features several standout schools, including the consistently top-ranked International School (grades 6-12) and elite elementary schools like Medina Elementary and Somerset Elementary. Among comprehensive high schools, Newport Senior High School leads with a 95.5% graduation rate, while Interlake Senior High School shows a lower graduation rate of 79.5%. Academic performance varies significantly between middle schools, with Tyee Middle School achieving over 84% proficiency in core subjects compared to Highland Middle School at under 35% in English.

Overall, the district's students outperform state averages by 20-26 percentage points in test scores. Interesting exceptions include Jing Mei Elementary School, which excels in math, and the online Bellevue Digital Discovery program, which maintains strong English scores. While per-student spending varies widely, it doesn't always correlate with outcomes, as seen at Sherwood Forest Elementary, which has the highest funding but moderate proficiency rates.
