BPS's dedicated staff and administration are eager to get the year started. Before school starts, we'd like to share some important information with you.
At Biddeford Primary School, we prioritize creating a safe and effective learning environment. Our Parent Handbook can be found on our website, where you will find important information about our procedures and district policies. Please take a moment to review it.
Morning Drop Off:
Buses will come through the bus loop (lane closest to the school) at 7:40. At the same time, cars may utilize the designated drop-off lane for student arrival. Staff members will be available to assist in getting students from vehicles. There is no parking during morning drop off, and parents are asked to stay in their car. We ask that you pull up and students be ready to exit the car. Students should be in class by 7:55am everyday.
Afternoon Dismissal:
Dismissal starts at 2:10. Similar to drop off, bus students will be released to the bus loop. Parent pick-up will take place at the front of the school. Parents will need to park in the drop-off lane or parking spaces. All students will be waiting outside with their classroom teacher and parents will pick up directly with the teacher. Please have identification until your child’s teacher knows you.
First Day of School:
Grades 1 and 2 will both return to school on August 28, 2024. Kindergarten students start on September 3, 2024.
Supplies:
General Supplies are listed below. (If your family needs assistance, please let us know)
Pencils

Your child’s teacher may communicate to you regarding a few other items needed for class.
Accessing Infinite Campus:
