As we get closer to our testing dates of STAAR, I feel it is a good time to remind ourselves about the power of a good, appropriate testing snack. :)
STAAR Testing Snacks
Be mindful of the snacks that will be allowed around the testing environment. If a snack is something that will produce crumbs, sticky fingers, or have any residue that can be transmitted to testing documents or technology, we will ask you to eat it after testing is completed.
Allowable snacks:
· Hard candy like peppermint (You can bring a baggie with hard candies already unwrapped to help keep the testing environment as quiet as possible.)
· Only water – your water bottle will need to be kept on the floor next to you during testing. Keeping it off your desk with help from accidents and water rings which can destroy testing tickets and other items.
Keep in mind that chips and other snacks are allowed to pack for your lunch, but while you are taking your test, we need to limit what is accessible.
Thank you!
Our website is updated with all things BCI

With the warmer weather we wanted to remind everyone of the Dress Code set by Keller ISD. These are also listed in the Student Code of Conduct on the Keller ISD website. Students are responsible to follow these guidelines during school hours and all school functions.

ENROLLMENT FOR 2025-2026
Current Keller ISD students who complete the 2024-2025 school year and plan to re-enroll for the 2025-2026 school year are considered returning students. An email for each returning student containing a unique Snapcode will be sent to the student’s primary guardian in July 2025. If the email for the primary guardian needs to be changed please contact our Registrar, Beth Pyell, at Beth.Pyell@KellerISD.net. Please do not enroll your returning student as a new student.

BRAVE NEWS
Thank you for dropping off your student(s) in the student loop using Phillips Dr. between 7:15 am and 7:45 am. 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 of the school is reserved for carpooling students of 3 or more who attend BCI.
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.
Parents are allowed to have lunch with their student in the vestibule or in the atriums.
We encourage you to review the map for drop off and pick up expectations. Our focus is for safety for all. The easiest piece of advice is to follow our staff's instructions in our drop off/pick up lanes. If they need you to pull up, please follow this procedure; otherwise, you will be backing up the lanes for drop off which can cause students to be tardy or not being aware of safety concerns as they pertain to our crosswalks. Thank you in advance!
All the days have been beautifully identified on this calendar to help with planning. If you would like access to a printable copy, please click on the following link: https://www.kellerisd.net/about-kisd/calendar
