Bellingham Public Schools requires families to complete annual Skyward forms by Sept. 11, 2026, for the upcoming school year. The forms include student information, emergency contacts, privacy preferences, device checkout, and go-home plans for elementary students.

The district updated Skyward links and app versions over the summer, requiring families to update bookmarks or mobile apps to access accounts. Families may need to clear browser history or reinstall the app to log in. Attendance notifications will begin Sept. 1 through ParentSquare, with absences excusable through attendance notes.
