CALENDAR ADJUSTMENT: Last Day of School now is June 21, 2019
February's snowstorms closed BISD schools for three days. And at the March 14th School Board meeting, the directors voted to implement the three snow days built into our calendar for the days missed in February.
The last day of school is now Friday, June 21, 2019.
Things to note:
- It will be a half-day.
- Lunch will not be served.
- Adjustments to the high school finals scheduled are being developed and will be communicated to high school families soon.
- This does not change the date for high school graduation. It remains Saturday, June 15.

BISD's Budget Challenges for 2019-20 School Year
While there still remains a good portion of the 2018-19 school year left, spring is when BISD starts planning for the following school year. From welcoming new faces at our kindergarten information night, to discussing the upcoming senior year with the class of 2020 — this is the time of year where one foot remains in the present, while the other one tests out the waters of the future. Unfortunately, the budget waters for next year are rough, and BISD anticipates needing to reduce expenditures by approximately $2.6 - $3.4 million.
