Our roads have shown much improvement today in town and outside of town. But it will get below freezing tonight. Therefore, BISD will have a two-hour late start for Friday, January 30th. Buses will run two hours late. First bell at 9:45 AM. This gives all of you extra time to get yourselves and your students to school safely.
We are so glad to receive our students and staff back to school!! We have missed you. Be safe in the morning and give yourselves extra time!
BISD will run a two hour late start for Thursday, January 29, with one big change. We will still not be able to run our bus routes outside of town. We will run routes in town, but they will change a little. The transportation department will put out info in the SMART TAG bus App.
The first bell will ring at 9:45 AM. We will drive the roads early in the morning and may need to cancel school if everything freezes solid again. We will make that call by 7:30 AM.
For our families who live outside of town, please use your best judgement for what is best for your students.
Leave your homes with plenty of time to take it easy.
Due to hazardous road conditions on our side streets and rural routes, BISD will be closed Wednesday, January 28.

Dr. Owen will be live on the Burkburnett ISD Facebook page on Thursday, January 22, at 12:20 PM, with special guest Jody Littleton, Athletic Director and Head Football Coach.
If you have any questions for Dr. Owen, please submit them in the comment section on our Facebook post in advance, and he will address them live. Please keep all questions focused on district- or campus-level policies, processes, or facilities. Dr. Owen will not be answering questions regarding specific personnel or student situations. He will begin with a district update, followed by responses to your submitted questions. The huddle will conclude with a live Q&A, allowing participants to ask questions in real time.
Please note the daytime scheduling: Dr. Owen is filming during school hours so our video students can benefit from this hands-on learning experience. If you are unable to watch live, a replay will be available. We hope you will take the time to join these huddles and find both the information and format beneficial.
Don't forget - we have an early release tomorrow, December 19th at 12:00 PM as we begin our Christmas break.
Please make sure your transportation and pick-up plans are in place for the early dismissal time.
