Friday, May 24 is Bike or Walk to School Day!
Calling all biking and walking enthusiasts! Please join us on Friday, May 24th for Bike or Walk to School Day! Join other families in celebrating the beautiful weather and practicing alternative ways to arrive at school that promote health and help the environment.
Students and families are invited to gather at 7:15 AM at Port Madison Lutheran Church, or Ted Olson Preserve, to walk or bike to school with fellow x̌alilc community members. Families may also choose to walk or bike to school on their own.
We are looking for a few parent volunteers to bike to school - please visit the sign-up genius if you are able to help out!
Be sure to give your kiddo’s bike a safety check before the day of the ride: check brakes, tires, and gears. Classic Cycles has used trade-in bikes and they are able to pump up tires and check helmets for right fit.
May is Bike everywhere month--a nationally recognized celebration of bicycle transportation. Schools nationwide will participate in Bike or Walk to School Day on May 24 and x̌alilc is excited to participate! Students will be greeted and cheered upon arrival at x̌alilc where local bike group Squeaky Wheels will provide snacks and give-aways.

Last year, BISD underwent a communications audit, which included a survey. This was an incredibly valuable tool, provided insight and helped set communication goals to improve our practices.
It is time again to evaluate what is working and how we can improve.
Please take the survey that best fits you:
- Parent/Guardian Survey
- Community Member Survey
You are not asked to provide your name/email address and your responses will remain anonymous. Your honest feedback helps shape the focus for next year (and beyond). The survey should only take a few minutes to complete and will close on Friday, May 24.
Thank you!

BISD has been selected to participate in a year-long professional learning opportunity called the Farm to School Institute.
As a part of this Institute, a team from the BISD community (teaching and food and nutrition staff, administrators, community members) will be attending a 3-day intensive in July. At this intensive the team will develop a farm to school action plan for BISD that integrates the community, classroom and cafeteria by focusing on school gardens, food and nutrition education, and local procurement into school meals. Ahead of the intensive we are seeking input from the BISD community that will be integrated into the action planning process through conversations and this survey.
Thank you for sharing your input about the BISD farm to school program!
