BELLEAIRE ELEMENTARY
About Us
Established: 1952
Location: 1200 W. Mission Avenue

History: Belleaire Elementary School was opened in the fall of 1952 to accommodate the tremendous growth at Offutt. The school district passed a bond issue to purchase land for the new schools and the federal government provided some funding to build the schools. The citizens of Bellevue were asked to name the new school and Belleaire was selected. However, when the City of Bellevue annexed the land where the school was located, the official documents that were drawn up used the spelling “Bellaire.” The City has continued to use that spelling for housing developments and Bellaire Boulevard.

Project Notes
October 14, 2019 – Belleaire Elementary School
Work is being finished up on the renovation of Belleaire Elementary School. The bulk of the work within the building was the renovation/replacement of the existing steam heating/ chiller cooling systems within the building with a Variable Refrigerant Flow (VRF) heating and cooling system. This is a highly energy efficient system that provides individual control in room areas and is anticipated that the new heating and cooling system will save a considerable amount of utility and maintenance savings to the District over the life of the system. Also included in the project was the inclusion of a new fire sprinkler system throughout the building and a new secured building entrance for the school.
Also completed over the summer months was the partial replacement of the existing roof system over the north half of the building (the south half was previously replaced approximately 2 years ago as the result of storm/wind damage). The existing roof system was previously identified in a previously conducted roof survey as a roof system in need for replacement due to age and ongoing roof issues.
