BISD will Stream Graduation Ceremonies Live!
Do you have family and friends who are not able to attend graduation this year? BISD has been working with Globe Life Field to be able to livestream each of the graduation ceremonies using Facebook Live. Don’t have Facebook? That’s okay. Go to Birdvilleschools.net to view the live event on the front of the District’s website.
Notes from Superintendent Dr. Darrell G. Brown
Birdville ISD is proud of the diversity of the BISD family. The District has a rich history of recognizing and respecting our diversity. We believe that social injustice of any kind has no place in our classrooms or anywhere in our school district.
I am confident that BISD will continue to be a safe and inclusive environment for all students and staff when they return in the fall. We cannot remain silent, and we will stand against hate, intolerance, and racism.
Darrell G. Brown, Ph.D.
