It is second largest public school district in Jackson County, Iowa. It operates two buildings serving grades PK-12 and 3-4 year old preschool. Bellevue High School holds both the junior high and high school as well as an athletics complex on its campus, while Bellevue Elementary School is located downtown within the pre-Civil War Jackson County Courthouse building.

The district shares borders with Dubuque Community School District to the north, Andrew Community School District to the west, and Easton Valley Community School District to the south, with the Mississippi River and the state border with Illinois to the east.
