Bayport-Blue Point District Reporting Student Weight Data to State

Parents can opt to have student data not provided in state report.

The Bayport-Blue Point School District is participating in a New York State program, the Weight Status Category Report, and will be providing body mass index data for students in grades kindergarten, second, fourth, seventh and tenth grade for this school year.

The district says no names or individual information will be part of the information provided. The data report categorizes children into weight status groups (underweight, healthy weight, overweight and obese) using numbers only.  

Parents may opt out of having their child’s information included by completing and returning a letter that is available at the district website and the district administration office by January 2, 2014.
