All families: Please fill out this After School Transportation Survey starting tomorrow 8/26 at 3:00 pm.

This form tells us how your student will depart from school each day. Enter what will be your student's normal end-of-day plan. School buses only transport students to and from home OR to on of the following child care facilities: Big Kids/Kids Club, Boys and Girls Club, or Hazel Creek.

Families will need to provide transportation to play dates and other after school activities.

Our preference is an email to halbus@bisd303.org We will respond to your email, but are unable to confirm messages or notes.

Thank you so much for filling out this form and helping your student know their normal end-of-day plan. It helps dismissal run smoothly.

Through the generous support of our PTO, school supplies are provided for ALL students.

Please make sure everything is labelled.

Thank you PTO!

This is a one-stop resource for all the information you need about Bainbridge Island School District:

This information is also available in the Family Handbook section on our website, where it can be translated into the language of your choice.

The Annual Back-to-school Check-in (ABC) process has been completed for 70% of students. This annual process lets us know that your student(s) are returning to our schools for 2025-26 and allows parents/guardians to review annual information. 

The ABCs must be completed for all students attending BISD schools in 2025-26, including both new and returning students. Access the ABCs by logging into your Family Access account. It should take about 15 minutes (or less!) to complete. You must complete your ABC check-in to be able to find out your child's teacher on August 26th.

If you need assistance with the ABC process (such as translation, accessing technology, or other questions), please get in touch with Sheila Jakubik via email sjakubik@bisd303.org or by phone 206-842-4411.

NOT RETURNING? If your K-4th grade student is not returning to BISD schools this fall, please let Sheila Jakubik know via email sjakubik@bisd303.org as soon as possible.
