Bella Vista High School

Bella Vista High School is one of the top-rated public high schools in the Sacramento region, serving approximately 1,939 students in grades 9 through 12. Located at 8301 Madison Avenue in Fair Oaks, the school draws from eastern Fair Oaks and portions of southern Orangevale within the San Juan Unified School District.

Bella Vista earns strong academic marks, with a GreatSchools rating of 8 out of 10 and an A- grade from Niche. The school offers 21 Advanced Placement courses with an impressive 81% AP exam pass rate — well above the state average. Families value the school's strong college-prep track, competitive athletics, and active student community.

The school's official website is sanjuan.edu/bellavista.

Living Near Bella Vista High School

The Bella Vista attendance zone covers some of the most desirable areas of Fair Oaks. The surrounding neighborhood is defined by mature oak tree canopy, generous lot sizes (typically a quarter-acre to half-acre), and a mix of mid-century ranch homes and updated custom builds. Many properties sit along rolling terrain with a semi-rural feel despite being minutes from major shopping and freeway access.

Home prices in the Bella Vista attendance zone generally range from $525,000 for entry-level three-bedroom ranches to over $1,200,000 for larger custom homes. The median sale price in Fair Oaks reached $682,000 in early 2026, with homes averaging just 29 days on market — a reflection of consistently strong buyer demand.

The neighborhood offers direct access to the American River Parkway trail system, and the historic Fair Oaks Village is nearby with local dining, shopping, and community events like the annual Chicken Festival.

Why Families Choose Bella Vista

Bella Vista draws families who want strong academics without leaving the public school system. The combination of high AP participation, solid test scores, and a well-rounded extracurricular lineup makes it one of the most sought-after high schools in the San Juan district. Homes in the attendance zone tend to hold their value and sell quickly, so buyers shopping this area should be ready to move when the right property hits the market.
