Each month, Birdville ISD partners with EECU to recognize a teacher and a support staff member in the District’s “I Shine at Birdville ISD!” program for making a difference in the lives of students, staff and the community.
Members of BISD’s Partners in Education Advisory Committee select the “I Shine at Birdville ISD!” winners from recognitions received through the District’s “Touch of Class” program. The Touch of Class program provides the opportunity for students, staff, parents and community members to recognize Birdville ISD employees for the positive work they do for children and the District.
When a Touch of Class nomination is received, a certificate and a copy of the nomination are sent to the honoree’s supervisor. The supervisor then recognizes the employee and presents them with their certificate.
The “I Shine at Birdville ISD!” honorees each receive $50 from EECU.
The January 2022 honorees are Darren Minix, Binion Elementary teacher, and Tim Jochum, BISD bus driver. Pictured with the honorees are Superintendent Dr. Gayle Stinson and Donna Thomas with EECU.
Darren Minix’s recommendation said, “Mr. Minix has always been in contact with me from day one on how he could help accommodate my child. When he misses school he always sends a message to make sure he is okay. … My son loves his teacher and looks forward to school each day. Thank you for all you do, it doesn’t go unnoticed!”
Tim Jochum recommendation said, “Thank you so much Tim! Your kindness and professionalism did not go unnoticed by the 2nd graders of W.A. Porter. I truly hope we see you on another field trip! We need more people like you in this world!”
To honor any BISD staff member, submit a Touch of Class Nomination. The “I Shine at Birdville ISD!” winners are selected each month from the Touch of Class recognitions received.
Since the beginning of 2022, reports of positive COVID-19 cases have been on the rise across the community, state and nation. Birdville ISD is experiencing similar increases in positive cases among our students and staff. Therefore, BISD’s COVID-19 Dashboard (“the Dashboard”) is being expanded to provide BISD families and staff with daily and monthly COVID-19 numbers.
The Dashboard’s numbers are based on information received from parents and staff through the online reporting forms. It is critical that parents and staff notify the District of positive tests using the links below. (Testing agencies do not notify the District with test results.) Once the reporting form is complete, the District will verify the form data before the data is reflected in the COVID Dashboard numbers.
The Dashboard data will be finalized workdays by 6 p.m.
Birdville Voices is a digital magazine for BISD middle school honors English Language Arts and Reading (ELAR) students. Every honors teacher may submit two writing pieces each six weeks, selected from all of their students’ writings during that six-week period. The District then compiles these into a collection called “Birdville Voices.” Students whose work is selected receive a certificate for their accomplishment.

The Birdville Center of Technology and Advanced Learning (BCTAL) Future Farmers of America (FFA) Radio Broadcast team, Jacob Joyner, Macaela Paris, and Morgan Ward, are competing at the State FFA Leadership Development Events (LDE) Competition Dec. 3–4 in Huntsville, TX.
In preparation for the competition, teachers and students sit down and pick an agriculture topic currently in the headlines. The topic chosen by the BCTAL team is the current infrastructure bill and the impact on the economy and, specifically, the agriculture business. The students then present their script over microphones to a panel of judges to make it seem like this is an actual radio broadcast to the public. Judges score the broadcast on many items, including the current topic, speech, volume, presentation, teamwork, etc.
LDE competitions focus on creating situations for students to demonstrate their abilities in public speaking, decision making, communication, knowledge of agriculture, and the FFA organization. In addition, team and individual events reinforce what is taught in agricultural science classrooms.
The BCTAL FFA team defeated over 30 teams to qualify for the state competition, and at state, they will face another 23 teams in the semifinal and final rounds.
Meagan Brundrett is this team’s teacher.
