Bainbridge Island Public School Supporters is a grassroots, citizen-based campaign organization that works to help pass Bainbridge Public School bonds and levies. Our mission is to inform voters about upcoming school bond and levy measures and to direct efforts toward ensuring their passage. As a permanent political organization, we are a passionate voice for encouraging support for local funding of our schools.

BIPSS is comprised of volunteers who work long hours (eating popcorn and missing Seahawks’ games) to meet its mission.

BIPSS receives its funding from private corporate and individual donors committed to the quality and success of all Bainbridge Island public schools.

The 2023/24 BIPSS Committee includes Mev Hoberg, Mark Emerson, Lynn Smith, Peter Bang-Knudsen, Erin Bischoff, Drew Crandall, Evan St. Clair, Anna Steen, Kiyo Toma, Dave Trageser, Korum Bischoff, Melissa Bang-Knudsen, Erik Fong, Charlie Costanzo, Lori Sinclair, Lisa Hale, Dani Stoehr, and Emilie Sammons
