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.

If you have already purchased tickets and are able to attend on the new date, no action is needed—your tickets will automatically transfer. If you are unable to attend on January 30, please contact us, and we will be happy to issue you a refund.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to celebrating with you soon!

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.

Incredible teaching right here! 4th graders are finding the total area of composite models which can he very abstract. We did the Lead4ward strategy called Pair-Square-Share. Students pair with someone that feels strongly about the skill. They discuss the problem and solve it. Then, they square with another pair to share the steps they took to solve. Lastly, the class comes back together. The teacher picks a student to solve problem on the board. Students repeat process with new problem! Starting Monday morning strong in Mrs. Dimock's class!
