Welcome to the Fox Point-Bayside School District. The Fox Point-Bayside School District serves students in four-year-old kindergarten through eighth grade. Current enrollment is approximately 950 students with 550 students attending Stormonth Elementary School located at 7301 N. Longacre Road in the Village of Fox Point and 400 students attending Bayside Middle School at 601 E. Ellsworth Lane in the Village of Bayside.

Brief History of the Fox Point-Bayside School District

Originating in 1852 with two log buildings, the Fox Point-Bayside School District began. In 1874, the Fox Point Common School District was established and the Lake Holland School, a 30' x 22' structure, was built for $600 replacing the log schools.

The district was one of the first in the state to add Kindergarten in 1930. On February 6, 1935, the Fox Point School was opened and was located at 7301 North Longacre Road. Peter Stormonth was a teacher and superintendent in the new school with an enrollment of 100 students. Upon his retirement in 1964, the Fox Point School was renamed the Peter Stormonth Elementary School. By 1936, students were being bused in from the northwest portion of Fox Point and in 1941, Four Year Old Kindergarten and a lunch program were added.

The postwar years brought significant community growth. In 1948, the Village of Bayside acquired a school building site at 601 East Ellsworth Lane and merged with the Village of Fox Point to become the Joint #2 Fox Point-Bayside School District. Bayside School opened in 1953 housing K4-8th grade students. A third building, Dunwood School, was opened in 1955 at the corner of North Port Washington Road and East Dunwood Road.

In 1977, the district was reorganized into two schools due to declining enrollment. The Stormonth School was closed as an instructional site and repurposed as the district office. Vacated classroom space was rented to several community groups. Dunwood School was reorganized to house K4-3rd graders and Bayside became a 4th through 8th grade center.

The district was once again reorganized in 1992 upon the completion of a $4.5 million renovation of the Peter Stormonth Elementary School, servicing K4-4th grade students. Bayside School implemented a middle school model for grades 5-8. A $3.8 million renovation was completed at Bayside Middle School in 1998.

Today both schools enjoy state-of-the-art technology and attractive classrooms.
