Bellingham Public Schools hosts a Back-to-School Block Party, a resource fair for all district families, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, Aug. 19. The event will take place at Bellingham High School, located at 2020 Cornwall Avenue.

School and community partner tables will provide important resources for starting the school year. The event will include signups for Operation School Bell, a program of the Assistance League of Bellingham that supplies new school clothes for eligible families.  Child immunizations, sports physicals and haircuts will also be available at no charge. Food trucks will be onsite providing free lunch starting at 11 a.m., alongside a playfield for kids.

Please note: only service animals are allowed inside this districtwide event at Bellingham High School. All other pets must remain outside the building.

Thank you to the Bellingham Public Schools Foundation, the Whatcom Community Foundation, WECU, Molina Healthcare, PeaceHealth and the Mount Baker Foundation for supporting this community event. We look forward to seeing you and your children there!
