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!
Due to continuing hazardous road conditions, especially outside of town, BISD will be closed Thursday, January 29.
Good evening,
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.
