Free & Reduced Meal Applications for the 2026–2027 school year are due Wednesday, September 23.
The district will be completing a system rollover. Students who received free or reduced-price meals last year but do not have an approved application for the 2026–2027 school year will be moved to the paid meal status and charged accordingly.
This applies only to families who have not yet completed an application for the 2026–2027 school year.

There will be no school for students as our staff takes time to learn, collaborate, and prepare for continued student success.
We look forward to welcoming students back on Tuesday, September 22!
Students learned about animal selection, genetics, breeding programs, herd management, and the importance of making informed decisions when selecting animals for production and performance. It was a great opportunity for students to see how the concepts we discuss in the classroom are applied in the real world.
A big thank you to Solo Select for taking the time to educate and share your knowledge with our students! We are grateful for opportunities like this that allow our students to learn, ask questions, and experience the agriculture industry firsthand.
It's Homecoming time! Over the next few weeks all BHS students have an opportunity to be part of an amazing tradition in Burkburnett by spending time together to build a Homecoming Float. This year's theme for the class competition is Fairytales!
On September 23, the community is invited to be a part of the celebration at our Homecoming Parade at 6:30 PM. Entries will lineup at BMS and the parade will begin on Ave D and end at Bulldog Stadium where a community pep rally will be held and the parade winners will be announced.
If you'd like to be in the parade, please see the comments for the sign up information. All entries are due September 18.
