A Note To BISD Families
From The Superintendent |
Dear Birdville Families,
Recently, you may have noticed several stories appearing on a local television about bullying in Birdville ISD. I want to take this opportunity to write you concerning this matter.
You send your children to us every day, and the most important thing we can do is protect them and ensure their safety. That must come before anything else. It is a great act of faith for you to send us your children, and we take that very seriously. >Read more |
