There has been a slight change in the theme for Friday Night Football. This Friday will be PINK OUT instead of Neon. Here is the updated schedule for the rest of the season. We would love for ALL schools, students, parents, grandparents, community members, business owners, EVERYONE to participate.

REMINDER! All students will be out for Fall Break, October 6th, 9th & 10th. Classes will resume on Wednesday, October 11th. ENJOY!

This is a reminder that our Unified Flag Football game will take place at 6:30 PM this Friday right before our home football game against Alvarado. Get to the game a little early so you can support our Unified athletes!

The BISD track will need to be locked down Monday morning through Thursday morning this coming week. The track resurfacing company will be back to stripe the lanes on the track. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

TEACHER WORK DAY WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2023. No school for all Burkburnett ISD students.

HOMECOMING WEEK IN BURKBURNETT! Come join the fun! Line the streets to watch the parade Sept 13. Meet us at Friendship Park Amphitheater for food and our CITY WIDE PEP RALLY! Bring a lawn chair. Vendors will be set up at 5:30, parade at 6:30, & Pep Rally at 7:30.

BISD would like to request help from our fans at our football games. We ask that you please pick up your trash and throw it into one of the many trashcans in the stadium. The stands were left in pretty bad shape after last Friday's game. We appreciate your attention to this at both home and away games, as we do not want to leave trash at anyone else's stadium either. Thank you!

The first phase of the track restoration has been completed. We will open the track to public use beginning today. The second phase will be the striping of the track. That will take place in the next few weeks. We will need to close the track again for that. Please keep dogs, bikes, and cleats off the track to help keep it in good shape. We thank you for your patience and support!

BISD will be resurfacing our track beginning the end of this week. Our track is due for this routine maintenance in order for us to host track meets. Unfortunately, we will need to lock down the track for public use during this project. We appreciate the public's understanding.

Important update regarding e-cigarettes (vapes) laws on campus. Texas Legislature recently passed Senate Bill 2428 which states: Beginning the 2023-2024 school year, any student caught in possession of an e-cigarette (vape) will automatically placed in DAEP.

As a way to continue to provide opportunities for our community to provide feedback to our school district and superintendent, we will be hosting periodic town hall meetings through Facebook Live. Join us on April 24th. Please keep all questions focused on policies, processes, or facilities at the district or campus level. Dr. Owen will not be answering any questions about specific personnel or student situations. Dr. Owen will give a district update and then answer your submitted questions. Dr. Owen will end the town hall with a live Q & A that will allow you to ask questions in real-time. We hope you will take the time to join in on these town halls and we hope you find the information and format beneficial. You can access the Live Event here: https://fb.me/e/vwmk4TnB
