Join us on Thursday, October 30th at Bellevue Civic Stadium as we celebrate our football Seniors in their final home game of the regular season as the Tigers take on Holy Cross at 7:00pm.

In an effort to better support the needs of our students, we have created a form that teachers, parents, and students can fill out to proactively request help from the school for things like academic concerns, behavior concerns, social/emotional wellbeing, mental health wellbeing, or other possible issues happening outside of school. This form is part of our broader multi-tiered system of support for students and families. To submit a referral, please fill out the attached form below. If you have any questions about the form or if you should even fill it out, please contact our School Counselor Erin King at erin.king@bellevue.kyschools.us.

With the change in the start of the school year, we have updated our 1st semester important dates information. This can serve has a handy reference guide. Dates and events could be added as the school year progresses. As always, please reach out with any questions.

As we approach the first game at the newly renovated Gilligan Field, we would like to offer all Tigers fans the opportunity to purchase a Bellevue Tigers stadium chair, or stadium blanket. The stadium chairs are $60. The stadium blankets are $50. You can purchase each item using the links below and pick up your item at the game on September 12th.

In order to promote a safe and healthy school environment, we encourage all of our students to report suspicious activity, safety concerns, or mental health concerns to a trusted adult. If they do not feel comfortable talking to an adult in the building, they can always report concerns to the Kentucky Safe Schools Tip Line at 1-866-393-6659. All reports to the Kentucky Safe Schools Tip Line are completely anonymous.
