We hope everyone enjoys a safe and restful long weekend! Classes will resume on Tuesday, September 2.
👉 Please note: We WILL have school on Friday, September 5, 2025.
New state requirements (SB 12) require parent permission for certain services. ✅
👉 Two quick permissions are needed for the following services:
1️⃣ Health Services – Nurses need parent permission for care such as first aid, health checks, and screenings (except in emergencies).
2️⃣ Counseling & Support Services – Consent is required before students can participate in guidance lessons, goal-setting, or short-term support services.
📌 Please complete the Annual Routine Health Services Consent Google Form to indicate whether you give or deny consent to the services above.
⚠️ A separate form must be completed for each student enrolled in Bowie ISD.

All students and staff are safe, and we have returned to normal operations. We appreciate the swift response from local law enforcement and your continued support as we prioritize the safety of our school community.
Please be assured that all students and staff are safe. We are working closely with local law enforcement and will continue to monitor the situation. Updates will be shared as they become available.
Dear Parents,
Bowie ISD will be switching to a new online meal payment system for the 2025–2026 school year.
What does this mean for you? If you plan to deposit money into your child’s account for Beverages and/or Smart Snacks, you will need to register with the new system, i3 PaySchools Central.
Please follow the registration instructions provided in the attached flyer to set up your account.
Thank you for your continued support!
Reminders:
The doors will NOT open early. You will be welcomed into the CAFETERIA entrance promptly at 6:00.
(In the past, the best time to arrive seemed to have been around 6:30ish.)
Bring your school supplies while you have help to carry them!
Most will be dropped off in your science teacher's classroom.
Enter through the cafeteria. All schedules will be handed out in the cafeteria.
Help with online registration will also be provided tonight.
No registration = No schedule
Walk your schedule! Map out a plan to make the most of your passing period
using the map provided.
Parking is available in the back of the school (gym parking lot).
Then make your way through the gate to the cafeteria.
Meet the Teacher ends promptly at 7:30, allowing our staff time with family.
PASS is also sponsoring a spirit gear fundraiser. That link is shared here: https://gogandy.com/bowiespiritwearfall25

Here are two important images you'll want to keep handy:
🗓️ The 2025–2026 Instructional Calendar – Stay informed about school days, holidays, breaks, and grade reporting periods.
⏰ Campus Start/Stop Times – Find out when your campus opens and the exact time classes begin and end.
💡 Helpful Tip: Buildings open before the first bell — arriving early means your student can enjoy a free, balanced breakfast to start the day strong!
🚨 Reminder: Students will be marked tardy if they are not in class when the first bell rings. Please plan accordingly. #BowieBuilt
Student Code of Conduct
Bowie ISD is committed to transparency and consistency in student expectations and disciplinary procedures. Please take a moment to review the board-approved resources for the 2025–2026 school year.
📖 Additional information can be found on the Bowie ISD website:

✅ BISD Discipline Matrix – https://www.bowieisd.net/o/bisd/page/campus-behavior-coordinators
As we prepare for a great school year, we encourage all parents and students to review the Bowie ISD Student Handbook, along with the campus-specific student handbook addendums, now available online.
This important guide outlines key district policies, parental rights, and expectations to help ensure a safe and supportive learning environment for all.
The handbook includes:
🔹 Section One: Parental Rights (based on state and federal law)
🔹 Section Two: Other Important Information for Parents and Students (organized A–Z)
📌 Campus Handbook Addendums are also included on the same page.
Please remember, the handbook is a general guide and does not replace official BISD policy or the Student Code of Conduct.

Let’s make it a great 2025–2026 school year together! 💜📚 #BowieBuilt #
