Suamico PTO is collecting new and gently used books for students in grades K–4 to help us prepare for our upcoming Bingo for Books event in November!

Have books at home that are no longer being read? We would love to give them a second life! Your donations will help put books into the hands of students who will be excited to discover new stories and adventures. ❤️

📖 How to Donate:
Please bring your book donations to the Suamico Elementary main office and place them in the tote labeled “Book Drive Donation.”

Every book makes a difference, and we appreciate your generosity in helping make this event a success!

Questions? Please reach out to Suamico PTO at suamicoelementarypto@gmail.com.

Parent/Teacher Conferences will be held on Thursday, October 22 and Tuesday, October 27 - a sign up will be emailed out to families shortly.

Every classroom at Suamico Elementary has a scheduled snack time during the school day. Please help your student stay energized and ready to learn by sending a healthy snack with them each day to enjoy during their designated snack time.

Please also keep in mind that some classrooms may be allergy-aware. If your child’s classroom has specific allergy considerations, you should have received communication regarding those guidelines. Thank you for helping us keep all of our students safe and healthy!

If you use the Dash Pass app to pick up your student at the end of the school day, please keep in mind that you must have an Infinite Campus Parent Portal account set up for your information to sync properly with Dash Pass and allow the app to work.

If both parents or guardians will be picking up the student, each parent/guardian will need their own Infinite Campus Parent Portal account.

You can create your Parent Portal account by locating the email sent by Infinite Campus over the summer. Please be sure to check your spam or junk folder as well. After setting up your Parent Portal account, you will need to wait until the following day for the systems to sync with Dash Pass.

If you are unable to locate the email from Infinite Campus needed to create your Parent Portal account, please contact HSSD Registration at registration@hssdschools.org for assistance.

Explore the diverse cultures in our district in the newsletter below, which features what our EL Teacher, Mrs. Jacques, and her Student Leaders are working on. (Click button below to view "Culture Corner" Newsletter)

Did you know?! Now you can report your student's absences in your Infinite Campus Parent Portal! Follow the steps above and your're good to go. We do still accept phone calls or emails but understand that families are busy and this might make things a little easier.

What are we learning in Life Skills?

Through collaboration with the Unity School Grief Program, Suamico Elementary School is pleased to offer our students the opportunity to participate in a grief group during the school day. Along with a Unity Grief Counselor, School Counselor, Mrs. Ali Foley will lead a 6-week group designed to provide students with the opportunity to explore their grief through activities and conversation while learning about grief and developing coping skills. Through this group, we hope students gain insights into their own grief and connect with peers who have also experienced a death. This group is open to any student who has experienced a death regardless of when the death occurred. The grief group will be held from 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM on the dates below:

• Wednesday, November 4, 2026

• Wednesday, November 11, 2026

• Wednesday, November 18, 2026

Bay Port High School loves welcoming younger students to attend and support Bay Port athletics! Student safety is the most important thing to us and we want to make sure that every attendee’s experience is positive. Recently, we have had a number of situations where elementary/intermediate students have been at the games without adult supervision.

Because of this, please remember:

• Parents/guardians must be present with their children when entering through the gates.

• Parents/guardians must supervise their children throughout the entire game.

• Children should NOT be dropped off at the stadium or sent through the gates on their own.

• Students in grades K-6 will not be allowed to enter the gates without supervision.

• Children are not allowed to engage in running or horseplay in the grassy areas or other areas of the stadium.

• This includes playing football, tag, or similar activities.
