Bainbridge Schools Foundation is an independent, non-profit organization working in close partnership with our public school community. We raise funds, leverage resources, and act as a catalyst to involve the entire community in public education.
BSF works in close partnership with the Bainbridge Island School District to ensure its funding reaches 100% of BISD students, kindergarten through 12th grade. Our outstanding public schools consistently rank among the top in the state despite receiving significantly less funding per pupil than Mercer Island, Seattle, North Kitsap, and Bremerton. BSF bridges this gap at the elementary, middle, and high school levels district wide.
We need your help now more than ever to maintain the integrity of Bainbridge public schools. Our district spends $24,000 per student to provide every child with a high-quality education on Bainbridge Island. But state and federal education funding only covers 60% of the cost. We make up the rest through the generosity of our incredible community via local levies, bonds and your donations through BSF.
This year, our district’s shortfall has never been greater, so we’re focused on funding the critical programs and educators that make our island’s public schools exceptional. Will you join us?
