New State Law on Electronic Devices (HB1481). In accordance with House Bill 1481, all student electronic devices (including Apple Watches) will be required to be powered off and put away while on any campus during the instructional day. This includes passing periods and lunch. We will be providing additional guidance and expectations specific to each campus as the school year approaches. Please look for communication from campus principals via email and social media regarding this new law and policy, as well as for other back-to-school activities. Again, this is state law and all school districts across the state are having to implement the exact same policy.

🌟 Welcome to the Burkburnett ISD Family, Ashleigh Tucker! 🌟 We are excited to introduce Ashleigh as our newest Agriculture Science Teacher! Ashleigh brings an impressive background to our team, graduating from Tarleton State University in 2012 with a degree in Agricultural Extension and Industry. With 12 years of experience as an educator and 4 years specifically teaching Agriculture Science, she's ready to make a tremendous impact on our students. Education runs in Ashleigh's family, and her passion for learning is evident. As she shares, "I come from a long line of educators, and I've always had a genuine love for school. Over the years, I've noticed that many students don't share that same enthusiasm for learning. This observation has driven my mission to help all students find success—no matter their background or the path they choose after high school." When she's not in the classroom, Ashleigh stays busy with her family raising and showing goats, playing golf with her husband, and enjoying hunting and fishing adventures. Ashleigh is enthusiastic about joining our community, saying "I'm looking forward to becoming part of a strong and supportive school community that values student growth and achievement. I'm excited to help build meaningful relationships with students, foster their interest in agriculture, and contribute to programs that not only prepare them for future careers but also instill lifelong skills and values." Please join us in giving Ashleigh a warm Burkburnett welcome! We can't wait to see how she'll inspire our students in agriculture and beyond! 🌾 Welcome aboard, Ashleigh! 🎉 #BurkburnettISD #AgricultureEducation #WelcomeToTheTeam #NewTeacher #FFA

Thank you Happy teacher Appreciation Week
Welcome to Our BISD Family! We're delighted to introduce Shayla Honeycutt, who will be joining Burkburnett High School as a paraprofessional! As a Burkburnett native and BISD graduate herself, Shayla brings a special connection to our district and community. In her free time, Shayla enjoys "spending lots of time with family and friends, going on cruises, and singing karaoke." Shayla's passion for supporting students shines through in her reasons for becoming a paraprofessional: "I believe whole heartedly every student deserves love, support, encouragement, and individualized attention to become successful in and out of the classroom." She also shares that she "enjoy[s] collaborating with teachers to create a positive and fun learning environment," adding that "seeing every child succeed either in a small or a big way, reminds me why I do what I do, and I enjoy every minute of it." What makes Shayla's arrival especially meaningful is her deep connection to our community. As she explains: "I was born and raised in Burkburnett and attended BISD. It brings so much joy to my heart being able to give back to my community and school." And as Shayla proudly states, "Once A Bulldog Always A Bulldog!" Please join us in giving Shayla a warm welcome back to BISD – this time as a valued member of our educational team!

Welcome to Our BISD Family! We're thrilled to introduce Joy McCleskey, who will be joining our teaching team for her 9th year in education! Joy brings with her a wealth of experience and a genuine passion for helping students succeed. Joy earned her B.S. in Composite Science with Secondary Certification from Midwestern State University, graduating in May 2017. When asked about her personal interests, Joy shared: "In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with family and friends; this is a huge part of who I am. I'm also actively involved in volunteering with my church, which allows me to give back to my community in meaningful ways. Additionally, I love reading and baking, which help me unwind and stay creative." Joy's journey to becoming an educator is truly inspiring. As she explains: "I have always been drawn to the idea of becoming an educator, but it truly clicked for me in college while tutoring fellow students. I found immense joy in watching their understanding grow and their confidence build as they grasped challenging material." This early experience led her to volunteer as a lab assistant, where she discovered that "helping students learn and succeed has since become a deeply fulfilling part of who I am." Looking ahead to her time with us at BISD, Joy says she's "excited to join BISD and work alongside a team of educators who share my passion for teaching. I also look forward to building relationships with the students and supporting their growth both academically and personally." Please join us in giving Joy a warm welcome to our district family!
