#ShoutOuts are a great way to start a Wednesday! #celebRAYte #MakingWaves





Here are a few reminders as we go through the week!


Packets have been sent home via students' homeroom. If you haven't received it, contact your child's teacher.
Thank you!


TEACHER WORK DAY WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 2023. No school for all Burkburnett ISD students.


HOMECOMING WEEK IN BURKBURNETT! Come join the fun! Line the streets to watch the parade Sept 13. Meet us at Friendship Park Amphitheater for food and our CITY WIDE PEP RALLY! Bring a lawn chair. Vendors will be set up at 5:30, parade at 6:30, & Pep Rally at 7:30.


BISD would like to request help from our fans at our football games. We ask that you please pick up your trash and throw it into one of the many trashcans in the stadium. The stands were left in pretty bad shape after last Friday's game. We appreciate your attention to this at both home and away games, as we do not want to leave trash at anyone else's stadium either. Thank you!


The first phase of the track restoration has been completed. We will open the track to public use beginning today. The second phase will be the striping of the track. That will take place in the next few weeks. We will need to close the track again for that. Please keep dogs, bikes, and cleats off the track to help keep it in good shape. We thank you for your patience and support!


Next week is Homecoming and we have a theme everyday.
Monday: Pajama Day
Tuesday: Barbies vs. Kens
Wednesday: No School (parade that evening)
Thursday: Twin Day
Friday: Bulldog Jeans/Overalls
*Mums/Garters will be allowed on Friday with the following guidelines:
-bells must be taped
-no lights or other distracting items
-students must arrive at school with mum/garter already on
-if it becomes a distraction, staff may ask that the student remove it and place it in their locker
-Overton Ray Elementary is not responsible for damage
**All clothing will need to adhere to the student dress code.


Wear your favorite beach/summer/tropical attire this Friday.


September Breakfast and Lunch Menus



BISD will be resurfacing our track beginning the end of this week. Our track is due for this routine maintenance in order for us to host track meets. Unfortunately, we will need to lock down the track for public use during this project. We appreciate the public's understanding.


Orange Out this Friday! All students are encouraged to wear as much orange as possible to support our Bulldogs.
-All clothing must meet dress code.
-Students may put color in their hair as long as it is temporary.
-No full-face face paint. Designs on the cheek are ok.

These are the wonderful, smiling faces you will see on Monday and everyday this year. This is an amazing group of people who can't wait invest in our kids. They are in good hands! #MakingWaves #PrettyInPink


Our entire staff was back together today for convocation and it was a great day to be a Bulldog. Students welcomed everyone, the band played, cheerleaders cheered, and everyone was greeted with a smile. It is going to be a great year with great people and we can't wait to meet our students on Monday. #MakingWaves #PrettyInPink
*Gerry Brooks was our keynote and it was AWESOME!
