Blue Point Family News

Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year. We are so glad you're here! Family news is published each friday during the school year. We will do our best to be concise and informative each week. Please take a few moments to review.

Please plan to join us for our Annual Open House on Wednesday, September 17 from 5-6 PM. All family members are welcome to come to tour the building, visit the classroom, and meet your child's teacher. Students often lead the way and are excited to share their school with families. Please note that this is not a conference time, nor a time for individual time with teachers to discuss student performance. Please communicate with your child's teacher if you have something to discuss at a different time.

You can also use this QUICK REFERENCE to help get back in the school routine! For a deeper dive, many questions can be answered in our K2 Family Handbook.

Please make sure you are signed up for an appointment on either 8/27 or 8/28. Sign ups will be CLOSED by 8/25.
Complete ALL General Forms on PowerSchool prior to your appointment. Please make sure you know your PowerSchool sign in information as you will need to log in to one of our chromebooks (or you can use the app on your phone). The district code for the app is WFTM

STARTING SEPTEMBER 2ND:

Arriving at School:

For the safety of students arriving on school provided transportation, we are asking that parents do not use the bus loop to drop off in the morning. Families may pull up in the car loop or park in the parking lot. Staff members will be present on the bus loop crosswalk assist students to the front of the school.

Please arrive between 8:30 and 8:45. SCHOOL STARTS PROMPTLY AT 8:50 AM.

Dismissal from School:

Parents who are picking up students may arrive at 3:10 to begin checking in with pick-up passes. Student dismissal begins at 3:15.

Buses will be the only vehicles to use the bus loop at dismissal. All families who are picking up their children will need to park and walk to the front of the school to meet and escort their children to their vehicles.

Every family will be issued Pick-Up Passes to use for dismissal once all PowerSchool paperwork has been updated. These are presented during dismissal when picking up your child. If you forget, please check in with the office to clear your student for pick-up.

Change in Dismissal Plans:

If you are looking to change your child's transportation plans, please call or email bpoffice@scarboroughschools.org to make any dismissal changes by 2:30 and dismiss your child no later than 2:45.

Please read this letter from the Nutrition Department regarding school lunch & breakfast. Students are able to access breakfast as soon as they arrive to school. You will be able to get your child's student ID number on your appointment day if needed.

For all communication regarding students, please contact the office via email - bpoffice@scarboroughschools.org or by phone #207-730-5300. Please also include their teacher in the email if it is regarding a change in dismissal plans.

If it is an extended absence please fill out this form.
