GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
I attended Bell during the 2000's and graduated in 2011. It was a great school during the 00's, until our former principal (Rob Guercio) retired. The school went significantly downhill in the years after he quit. Bell is definitely not the school it used to be. The new principals don't engage with parents or the community, and are only in it for a paycheck.

"Lots of dogs here, very friendly to dogs and the river trail is a great addition. Many restaurants are also dog friendly. I would guess that most people in north center like dogs but there are also some wild cats that are very friendly. Dog owners may be jealous of all the happy cats. I personally don’t care for dogs but that’s not part of the question."
