Bellingham Public Schools (BPS) issued a reminder to families about safety and conduct for middle school students attending high school athletic events at Civic Stadium. The school district emphasized that middle school students must show a student ID or Skyward screenshot to enter free events, follow school rules during games, and avoid disruptive behavior. Event supervisors in orange coats will enforce these rules. Families are encouraged to attend with students to ensure they understand expectations, as supervision at Civic differs from school settings.
