We are having issues with students bringing water bottles to school that are not allowed. According to our handbook on page 18, it is stated students may only bring water in clear plastic water bottles. Students have been reminded multiple times. Starting Monday, students will receive D-slips for not following this rule. Thank you for your help.
We highlight all the work that's been going on over the past 15–18 months around the district. A number of Bossier schools have undergone major construction projects and transformative upgrades, all completed just in time for the new school year. In this episode, we’re taking you on a whirlwind tour to showcase our incredible progress.
We also showcase a few major wins! Buckle up — we’re taking off for a 50,000-foot view of innovation, inspiration, and impact in public education.
If your student rides Bus 9, Bus 104, or Bus 269 they were late loading and will arrive home later than usual. Thank you for your patience.
