💙 A BIG THANK YOU to Our Amazing School Families! 💙

We want to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to all of the wonderful Bay View Middle School families who generously donated monetarily or brought in food, drinks, and/or treats for our staff during parent-teacher conferences!


Your kindness and generosity helped keep our teachers and staff fueled during their long conference days. It’s a small gesture that makes a BIG difference and reminds our staff just how appreciated they are!


Thank you! Bay View PTO

💬 Talk About What They're Reading

One of the easiest ways families can support reading is simply by talking about it.


You do not need to be an English teacher or read the same book as your child. Instead of asking, "What did you read today?", try asking questions that invite conversation.


Try These Questions:

  • What is the most interesting thing that has happened so far?

  • Who is your favorite character?

  • What do you think will happen next?

  • Did anything surprise you?

  • Is there a character you don't trust?

  • Would you recommend this book to someone else?


These conversations encourage students to think about what they are reading and share their ideas.

Even a quick conversation at dinner, in the car, or before bed can make reading feel more meaningful.


You don't have to know the book to be interested in the reader!

Student Services Student Services

A Message from our Bay View Student Services Team

Due to the increase in virtual counseling appointments scheduled during the school day, we want to make sure we can provide adequate private space. If your child will be having scheduled virtual sessions with an outside provider, we would like your partnership in obtaining a signed Release of Information in order to assist your child with any technology or connection issues that may occur during their appointments.


We ask that you provide at least a 3 day notice per each virtual appointment in order to ensure that we have adequate and private space available to your child. If you notify the school the day of an appointment, we cannot guarantee an adequate space or that the message will be received in time to call your child out of class. We know that many appointments are already scheduled, but if you are planning on scheduling future appointments during the school day, we would appreciate it, if possible, avoiding Monday appointments. We do not have the same spaces available as we do on other days. If you need help finding the best time for your child to have scheduled appointments, please don't hesitate to reach out. Thank you for your help and partnership.

STUDENT PICK-UP PROTOCOL

If you are picking a student up during the school day, you must come into the main office and sign the student out with your Driver's License. If someone other than you or your emergency contacts is picking up your student, please contact the office to let them know who is picking your student up. Students are not allowed to leave during school hours via bike or walking without prior approval from the main office and Principal.


HEALTH ROOM PROTOCOL

If your student is not feeling well, they need to follow protocol and come to the health room to report their illness prior to contacting home. Students should not be using their iPad to email a parent or texting a parent to pick them up. This will eliminate the spread of illnesses to other students and will make the office aware of students being picked up prior to parent arrival.
