If you choose to submit scores to Bellevue College, take your first SAT or ACT by the spring of junior year and use the summer before senior year for retakes that could improve your superscore. Because the regular deadline is September 1, plan to have scores ready by then, since fall senior retakes will generally be too late for this deadline.
