The BISD Board of Trustees has been selected as the Region 9 Honor Board by the Texas Association of School Administrators 2010 School Board Awards Program.
TASA created the School Board Awards competition in 1971 to recognize those school boards that demonstrate outstanding service to the children of Texas using the following criteria: adherence to adopted board policies; support for educational performance in accordance with state-established standards; support for educational improvement projects; commitment to a code of ethics; provision of financial support for the school system; participation in workshops and other performance improvement programs; placement of the welfare of children served by the school system above personal or political motives; public relations efforts; and evidence of harmonious and supportive relationships among board members.
The winner of the state competition will be announced as the 2010 Outstanding School Board at the TASA/TASB Convention in Houston on Saturday, September 25, 2010.
All of us at BISD applaud our outstanding Board of Trustees and wish you the best of luck at the state competition.
