BISD welcomes students to 2023-24 school year
Students returned to Breckenridge schools on Tuesday, kicking of the 2023-24 school year.
Although the next two weeks will be five-day weeks, Aug. 28 is the first week of the four-day weeks for the Breckenridge Independent School District. On most Fridays throughout the year, most students and faculty will be off. There will be about one Friday a month for staff workdays or staff development days. And, a few Fridays are designated as “accelerated instruction” days for students who need extra help in specific classes. Click here to download a pdf of the 2023-24 BISD School Calendar.
Because of the adjustments to the school week, the start and end times for each school day also are a little different than in previous years. And, that, in turn, affects other things, such as the times that the school zones are activated each day.
The following are the school day times for each campus:
- East Elementary: 7:50 a.m. to 3:50 p.m.
- South Elementary: 8 a.m. to 4:05 p.m.
- BJHS: 7:45 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
- BHS: 7:45 a.m. to 4:15 p.m.
