Dear B-ESD Community,
Happy New Year! Welcome to 2026! I hope that everyone enjoyed some restful and joyful time with friends and family over the holiday break. We are heading into one of the busiest times of the school year, as our middle and high school students take their semester exams and complete various projects and assignments. Monday, January 26th, is a Professional Learning Day for district staff. There is no school for students.
Ballots are scheduled to be mailed out on January 23, 2026. The district is asking the community to consider two replacement levy resolutions - a Replacement Educational Programs and Operations Levy and a Replacement Capital Projects Levy. Ballots are due by February 10, 2026.
This Saturday, January 24th, B-EHS will honor eleven Athletics Hall of Fame Inductees at the girls basketball game vs. Ferndale. The game starts at 2:00pm.
And congratulations to the Bay View PTA who were given a ‘Spotlight Award’ by the Washington State PTA for their support of the flood evacuation center at Bay View in December!
Sincerely,
Dr. Chris Pearson, Superintendent
