The essence of Bellevue Children’s Academy’s remarkable educational journey is encapsulated in the vision and dedication of our leadership team.
Striving to nurture every aspect of student growth, our team emphasizes rigorous academics balanced with socio-emotional learning, ensuring our students emerge as well-rounded, thoughtful, and capable individuals.
Welcome from the Head of School
Welcome to Bellevue Children’s Academy!
For over 20 years, it has been our privilege to serve the Bellevue and greater eastside communities, providing exceptional private education. Starting from humble beginnings as an afterschool program, BCA has evolved to now support approximately 700 students across Preschool to 4th grade.
Our commitment at BCA extends beyond traditional academic rigor. We believe in a comprehensive approach to education, one that encompasses dedicated teaching, small class sizes, and a curriculum that values the whole child. This includes offering specialist classes and integrating socio-emotional learning, ensuring a well-rounded development for our students.
As we continue to grow and adapt, we remain focused on providing a learning environment that fosters curiosity, creativity, and a deep love for learning. Our aim is to equip our students not only with knowledge but with the skills and mindset needed to navigate their futures successfully.
We look forward to welcoming you and your children to our community, embarking together on a journey of discovery, growth, and achievement.
Warmly,
Britt Dougherty

✨We extend heartfelt thanks to members of @streetchildutd (Street Child United) for visiting BCA campuses.
All students K-4 got the opportunity to interact with Ms. Claudianny Drika, a football coach from Brazil who was named as one of the 100 most inspiring women by BBC in 2017!
Ms. Drika shared her inspiring journey from being a street child in Brazil to becoming an advocate for the rights of street-connected youth. It was invaluable to connect with her and be inspired to support their cause worldwide.
