Moving to Bellevue for work. Have a child in elementary school and another one in middle school. Please recommend good public elementary and middle schools in the area. Want to rent a house based on where the schools are Also, please share your thoughts on how to go about renting a house in the area. We want to rent a house and not an apartment
Assuming you mean public schools, Somerset elementary, Tyee middle school.
Seems like you go to these schools or live in the area. You have been recommending them in a couple of posts. There are other better schools as well.
I do live in the area and my son went to Tyee. There are a few other good bellevue schools but I dont have any personal experience with them (Bellevue, in general, has good schools)
Public schools yes. Updating the post
Literally any of them, but the ones in South Bellevue have a greater concentration of high earners. Eastgate or Somerset for elementary, Tyee for middle, Newport for high.
Thanks. Does that mean most high earning families live in southern part of Bellevue?
What did you end up doing,op?
Ended up renting and eventually buying in south Bellevue area. Excellent school district. 98006 zip code (Somerset area). Somerset elementary, Tyee Middle and Newport high school - all 3 schools are highly rated and we have had good experience with them till now. Kids are flourishing
Aren’t there huge wait lists for all of the good schools there? Good luck.
I believe that is only for choice schools. Since we are not in Seattle yet, we can’t apply to choice schools because they need a local address. Right now, only looking for public schools so we can rent a house in the zone
