Sibling Procedure for Current Resident 5th Grade Students: If you have a 5th grade student and are planning on sending him/her here next year, then please remember that you must apply within the district deadlines to ensure that your 5th grader will have a spot here next year. The BSD sibling procedure applies for RESIDENT students only. If you reside outside of the Bellevue School District, siblings are not guaranteed a spot at BP. Applications must be received by February 1st to guarantee a spot in our 6th grade class. In addition, the older sibling must maintain enrollment at Big Picture for next year and the two siblings must attend together for a minimum of one school year. If you desire to not access the sibling guarantee process, your child will be entered into the lottery with the other applicants. Applications received after February 1st will be placed at the bottom of the waiting list. The process has changed from the last time you applied with your older student. The district has taken over the process of collecting applications and performing the actual lottery. The application form is online on the district website and will be completed and submitted online. For families who cannot access email, we have paper copies available here in the office which will be scanned and submitted electronically. Here are the important dates that you need to take notice of:
