Blaine Elementary School

Today, Thursday February 24th, all Blaine schools will start two hours late due to road conditions. There will be no AM preschool and no AM out of district transportation.

All Blaine Schools will return to in-person learning on Monday, January 31st at their regularly scheduled start times.

As we prepare to return to in-person learning on Monday, January 31st, we want to remind our staff and families of the need to stay home if symptomatic and follow the Department of Health decision tree, on our website; https://www.blainesd.org/o/blaine-school-district/page/covid-19-info-and-updates The district will be offering PCR testing on our campus Thurs. and Fri., 10:30-11:00 A.M. (Testing is on the north side of the middle school gym, across H Street from the Boys and Girls Club.)

BSD will operate on a 2 hour late start on Monday, January 3rd. Additionally, BPS Lifeskills and Pt. Robert's Primary School will be on remote learning for the week of January 3rd-7th.

Power and related infrastructure systems have been restored to Blaine School District's campus. All of our schools are set to operate on their regular schedules on Tues. 12/14, absent unforeseen inclement weather.

Blaine School District will be closed tomorrow, Monday, December 13th, due to a power outage affecting multiple locations across our campus. The closure is in effect for all schools and locations.

We are monitoring the restoration of power to our campuses. We will message any impacts for tomorrow as soon as possible, but that may not be until the morning. We recommend families have an alternate plan for tomorrow just in case. 

Blaine Schools will be lifting the lockout of our campuses at the end of the day, and pick up / student release will occur as usual at 2:50 P.M. A statement with further details regarding the day’s events will be released later this evening.

We currently have an increased law enforcement presence on our central campuses in response to graffiti located in a girls bathroom on the high school campus. Local law enforcement is providing an increased presence on our campus due to an increase in county wide threats of violence. Although there is no verified threat on any of our campuses, we will be securing all campuses while the graffiti is investigated. No one will be permitted to enter or exit the campuses during this time. We will provide another notification when the lockout is lifted. We are grateful for the cooperation of our law enforcement partners for their willingness to respond and work with us during these times.

All Blaine School District locations will resume regular schedules and services on Wednesday, November 17, 2021. At this time no alternate bus routes are expected. Should conditions in the Ferndale area cause a closure to I-5 overnight (which is not anticipated), a school closure may be reconsidered. Any change would be announced by 6:30 A.M.

All BSD locations remain closed today, Tuesday, November 16, 2021. Please check our website, app or social media channels after 4:00 P.M. for information regarding a decision for Wednesday.

Out of an abundance of caution, school will be cancelled tomorrow, Tuesday, November 16th. While we did give consideration to a remote learning day, the potential challenges with electricity in some areas led us to the decision to cancel all school activities, including extra curricular, for tomorrow.

Join us for a Community Q&A with Dr. Granger tonight, Weds. 11/3, at 6:00 P.M. https://us02web.zoom.us/j/84783578675

Please be prepared for your student's bus route to be a few minutes later than usual between now and the end of next week as each route performs an actual safety drill. Students are directed to evacuate the bus and also learn about all things safety on their bus. Thank you for your ongoing support in keeping our buses the safest way for students to get to and from school!

We hope to have teacher assignments, schedules and bus route information available in Skyward by Wednesday, August 25th. Enrollment and staffing continue to fluctuate, making last minute adjustments necessary. We are trying to avoid releasing information that is still subject to change. However, Skyward is available now to apply for the Free and Reduced Lunch program, which is more than a meal application and could include other benefits for your student as well as others across the district. If you think you might be eligible, please apply today.
