🌟 WELCOME TO THE BISD FAMILY, TIFFANY JAMES! 🌟
We're delighted to introduce another wonderful addition to our Burkburnett ISD team!
Tiffany James joins us as a special education paraprofessional at I. C. Evans Elementary for the upcoming school year, bringing her passion for education and dedication to helping students achieve their full potential.
When she's not at school, Tiffany enjoys reading and cherishes time spent with her husband and two children. Her journey into education is truly inspiring - as a mother of a child with autism, she's witnessed firsthand the incredible joy and reward that comes from helping young minds learn and grow.
Tiffany chose to become a paraprofessional because she wanted to make a meaningful difference in children's lives. She shares, "Watching my daughter learn and accomplish things is the most amazing and rewarding experience, and I wanted to help other kids reach those same goals."
As she begins her journey with BISD, Tiffany is looking forward to creating strong bonds and friendships with both her colleagues and students at I. C. Evans Elementary.
Please join us in extending a warm welcome to Tiffany James!

📚 WELCOME TO THE BISD FAMILY, PAYTON MCKEE! 📚
We're thrilled to introduce one of our newest educators joining Burkburnett ISD!
Payton McKee, a proud 2020 BISD graduate, is returning home to inspire the next generation of Bulldogs as an English teacher at Burkburnett High School! Payton will graduate from Midwestern State University this May with a degree in Secondary Education, and we couldn't be more excited to welcome her to our teaching team.
When not in the classroom, Payton enjoys taking her dogs on long walks, baking delicious treats, and traveling - a passion ignited during her study abroad experience in London, England! Payton is also planning her future with her wonderful fiancée, and we're delighted they've chosen to make Burkburnett their home.
Payton's dedication to education stems from her desire to make meaningful connections with students and make learning relevant to their lives. She believes teachers have a profound impact on their students and is committed to making that difference every day.
As a BISD alumna, Payton is especially excited to return to the district that shaped her and to give back to our community. She looks forward to inspiring students and fostering a love for English alongside our incredible staff.
Please join us in welcoming Ms. McKee back home to Burkburnett ISD!

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!
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.
A Public Hearing of the Student Health Advisory Council (SHAC) of Burkburnett Independent School District will be held May 14th, beginning at 3:45 pm at the Overton Ray Elementary library. You can see the agenda posted, all past meetings, and other information on our website: https://www.burkburnettisd.org/o/bisd/page/shac
