Did you know we have designated Buckle Zones?
We understand the need to buckle your little one in his or her car seat, so we have two parking lot areas you can pull into to make sure your child is secure. This will also keep our car line moving as we try to load our Wranglers as quickly and safely as possible in the afternoons.
A few reminders....
Hey! We've got an app for that! Have you downloaded the new BPSB app? This is a great way to stay connected to your child's school and teachers!
In order to connect to your child's teacher using "Rooms', you must first create your rooms account! Check your email for the invitation (see pic). It will come from accounts@edurooms.com and will be in the same email you used in OnCourse Connect.

Bossier Schools has revised its cell phone policy in response to a new state law that restricts students from using cell phones and other electronic devices during the instructional day. Please note the following revisions:
Cell phones must be turned off and stowed during instructional time, including from the time students get on/off the bus or in/out of a personal vehicle while on campus;
Electronic communication devices, including but not limited to personal computers, laptops, electronic instruments, iPads, iPods, tablet devices, e-readers or similar devices, must be powered off and properly stowed for the duration of the school day.
Each violation will result in the collection of the cell phone/electronic device. More information regarding disciplinary action can be found in school handbooks.
*Please note the revised policy does not apply to students who have an Individualized Education Program (IEP)/Individualized Accommodation Plan (IAP), Section 504 plan or Individualized Health Plan that requires use of an electronic telecommunication device.
