BISD STRONG AWARD
Bainbridge Island School District is filled with amazing students and staff and now there is a way to recognize and celebrate the many individuals who make our district strong.

In preparation for bringing hybrid students to school, BISD has created a Return to Learn Handbook with a high-level overview of the many ways BISD has modified operational practices to keep students and staff as safe as possible during in-person learning.
The handbook includes videos on:
- The required steps prior to entering school buildings*
- Safety measures for riding the bus Please note: because of the pandemic, BISD is encouraging students to travel to and from school via walking, biking or personal vehicle, if at all possible, and leave the seats on the bus to students who need them.

HELPING TO KEEP YOU SAFE:
In addition, the Return to Learn Handbook links to the BISD COVID-19 Safety Handbook for those who wish to dig deeper into the details.
