BISD was proud to host resiliency influencer Brooks Gibbs. On Monday night, he delivered an inspirational message empowering BISD parents. The Boomtown Babes and BMS Choir performed, too! Thanks to The River Assembly of God for providing hot dogs, BMS StuCo for providing water, and BMS S2S for serving free popcorn! It was a stellar night, complete with tons of raffle prizes! Dr. Gibbs also presented to BMS 6th and 7th graders, sharing about emotional resiliency.
We would like to thank all the sponsors who contributed to our raffle give away at the Brooks Gibbs Parent Seminar! Thank you for supporting Burkburnett ISD. We appreciate you!
We are so very proud of the BMS Bands! Both Concert & Symphonic Bands participated in the Region 7 UIL Concert & Sight-Reading Contest yesterday at Legacy High School in Wichita Falls, Texas.
The BMS Concert Band received a Superior 1st Division for their concert stage performance and an Excellent 2nd Division rating in Sight Reading.
The BMS Symphonic Band received a Superior 1st Division rating on stage and a Superior 1st Division in Sight Reading. In addition, the Symphonic band received a 1st Division from every judge! This earned the band a Sweepstakes Award, which is the absolute highest honor!
CONGRATS BANDS! WAY TO GO!!
Last week we surveyed our elementary staff and elementary parents to see if they would be willing to add 10 minutes (5 min in the a.m. and 5 min in the p.m.) to the elementary bell schedule for the rest of the year beginning next Monday so that all students could get Good Friday (April 18th) off. The surveys had overwhelming support for this. This does not effect the secondary bell schedules as they are already longer.
So, we will have April 18th off. See Calendar attached.
Elementary parents: This does not alter any other part of the school day. The drop off times for parents in the morning will not be changed to an earlier time, but kids need to be at school no later than 7:40.
Attention Parents!! Today is the day! Join us at 5 PM tonight for our parent seminar at the BMS. Raffle Prizes up for grabs! Win some great prizes from some amazing local sponsors!
