 Excellence in Education
The Bettendorf Community School District enjoys a rich tradition of excellence in education. We provide our students a multitude of learning opportunities designed to prepare them for making a living, making a life, and making a difference.
We recognize our students come to us with individual talents and interests. Our highly skilled and dedicated staff is fortunate to teach students who have a desire to be challenged and achieve. They work personally with each student, taking earnest responsibility for helping our community's children realize their educational goals and prepare for their future.
 I invite you to visit our schools and our community. See for yourself the great opportunities that abound in the Bettendorf Community School District.
Sincerely,
Theron J. Schutte, Ph.D.

The District provides a wide variety of educational programs for preschool through 12th grade students living within the District boundaries, approximately nine square miles of Bettendorf, Iowa as well as a small section of Davenport, Iowa. There are eight schools in the District: six elementary schools, one middle school, one high school with an alternative high school program (shared with two other neighboring school
districts).
Elementary Schools
Our curriculum emphasizes literacy, communication, reasoning, and problem solving. Other subjects, including physical education, health, art, and music, are taught to all students K-5. Orchestra is available to students as early as grade 4 and, band - grade 5.
The District’s six elementary schools offer a program dedicated to teaching a defined core of knowledge and skills in reading, math and science.
Our Middle School staff work in teacher teams to provide collaborative planning for educational experiences. Students participate in daily TA’s (teacher advisory periods) to hear building announcements and work on special activities. TA’s average 16 students. Through a “house” concept, each grade level is split into three sections, allowing teachers and students to develop stronger relationships and a sense of team.
Bettendorf Middle School is dedicated to meeting the unique academic and social needs of the young adolescent.
The professional staff of Bettendorf High School strives to prepare their students for the future with a student-centered schedule; an emphasis on active, applied learning; and the integration of school-to-work/career opportunities.
