Please sit down with your student this week to locate these items. Missing equipment may result in replacement fees, so we ask that you ensure everything is accounted for before their designated collection day.

HAWAIIAN FALLS - 6TH GRADE FIELD TRIP
MAY 20th
The webstore is now open for anyone who has not yet purchased their student’s ticket for Hawaiian Falls. This is an annual 6th‑grade field trip where students work together in teams to build boats and attempt to paddle them across the pool. It’s a fun and memorable experience for everyone!
When purchasing your student’s ticket, please consider adding an Angel Ticket donation. This helps support a student who may not otherwise be able to afford to attend and ensures all students can participate in this special event.
Please see the flyer/link for additional details.

STUDENT ARRIVALS
Thank you for dropping off your student(s) in the student loop using Phillips Dr. between 7:15 am and 7:45 am at Door #6. If it is past 7:45 your student will need to be dropped off in the front office to obtain a tardy pass for class.
The front entrance, Door #1, of the school is reserved for carpooling students of 3 or more who attend BCI. We reserve the front entrance also for SPED buses and those who are on crutches or in wheelchairs.
As a reminder, for the safety of our students and staff, no cell phone use is allowed, the speed limit is 10 mph on school property, and 20 mph in School Zones.
STUDENT DISMISSAL
Student dismissal will have a staggered release. Our BUS riders and WALKERS will be leaving their classrooms at 3:13 PM. In years past, over 70% of our students rode a bus for our PM routes, so, as you can imagine, we will have a lot of students leaving at this time. There is not a designated area where walkers are picked up. Please communicate with your student where you will be each day so that your walker will know which crosswalk to use. We have crosswalks on the south side of campus that cross Bear Creek Parkway and another that crosses over Phillips Drive on the north side of campus. If you are parking your vehicle in our neighborhoods around us, please be respectful by not blocking driveways, walking on lawns, or speeding. We are surrounded by a sweet community and a beautiful park, so we want to make sure we take care of these areas.
At 3:15, our CAR RIDERS will be dismissed. We do not call out names. Students are instructed to watch as the cars pull up to see where they would need to use the crosswalk, if needed. We will have many adults out to help encourage our students to keep watching for you as you safely drive around the loop. Remember to stay off your cell phone in our loop for safety reasons.
For the first week or so of school, please continue to communicate with your student how they will be getting home. i.e. which bus to get on, which location to walk home, who will be picking them up etc. Some times students get very nervous during this new transition and we want to ensure you student gets home safely and on time.
DRESS CODE
Thank you for partnering with us and ensuring your student is meeting the KISD dress code.
Adherence to the dress code helps us ensure we have a safe and distraction free learning environment. Here is the link to the KISD Dress Code Guidelines. This information can also be found at www.kellerisd.net under the Resources tab and then by clicking on the Code of Conduct & Student Handbook button.
Cell Phone Expectations
Cell Phone Expectations
Our students have been GREAT with following our cell phone expectations this year! First - a cell phone is NOT a needed supply. :) By 7:45 AM, cell phones should be turned off and placed in the student's locker. If a student needs to use the phone, we have passes ready for students to come up to the office to use a campus phone. At the end of the day, students are able to access their cell phones when they are outside of the building. To read more about this policy, please refer to KISD's Student Handbook by following the steps below:
