About Bellfort Early Childhood Center


  • Purchased by HISD in 1996, this school takes its name from the street on which it is located in southeast Houston. Originally opened as an alternative school, the Bellfort Academy began serving only fourth- and fifth-graders from nearby Lewis Elementary School in 1998. (Lewis served grades prekindergarten through 3 at that time.) It began serving prekindergarten and kindergarten students in 2009.
