Understanding the 10/10 Rating
Bellevue School District has earned an overall SchoolDistrictFinder rating of 10/10, placing it in the top-tier tier. Our ratings are based on state assessment results — the share of students scoring proficient or above in reading and math, as reported in Washington’s SBAC ELA & Math assessments (2024–25 school year). We average each district’s reading and math proficiency, then rank it against other districts in the same state to produce a 1–10 score. Because Washington is compared only against itself, the rating reflects how this district performs relative to its in-state peers.
Bellevue School District ranks among the highest-performing public school districts in Washington on state assessments, with reading and math proficiency rates in roughly the top 10–20% statewide. Homes in and around zip code 98007 often carry a measurable premium relative to neighboring areas served by lower-rated districts.
