Today we celebrate World Kindness Day, a day dedicated to promoting kindness to others, to ourselves, and to the world around us. 💕
First introduced by the World Kindness Movement in 1998, this annual celebration reminds us that even the smallest acts of compassion can make a big difference — a smile, a helping hand, or a simple word of encouragement.
Let’s all take a moment today to spread kindness wherever we go — in our classrooms, hallways, and community. Together, we can make the world a little brighter! ✨ #WorldKindnessDay #Bowiebuilt
Comment below on a way that you or your student showed kindness in our community today.

Our annual BISD Food Drive to benefit the Bowie Mission is already underway — and there’s still time to make a difference! 🛒✨
While you’re out shopping this weekend, consider picking up a few extra nonperishable items to help local families in need. Donations will be accepted through November 19.
📦 Drop off your items at your child’s campus and help us stock the shelves for the Bowie Mission this holiday season.
Let’s show how #Bowiebuilt our community truly is! 💪

Today, Bowie ISD had the privilege of hosting a heartfelt Veteran’s Day program to honor the brave men and women who have served our country. We are deeply grateful for their service, sacrifice, and commitment to protecting our freedoms. ❤️🤍💙
This event was truly a district-wide effort:
🎶 Band & Choir provided beautiful musical tributes
📘 National Honor Society led the program with pride
🍳 Culinary Arts prepared a delicious breakfast reception
🌹 Floral Design created stunning red and yellow rose presentations and elegant table décor
🎨 Art Classes designed custom reception menus
🚩 FFA presented the flags with honor and tradition
🎤 And to top it off, our 1st graders melted hearts with the sweetest song of appreciation
We are incredibly proud of our students and staff for coming together to create such a meaningful event. BISD is honored to serve our veterans and community in this way.
Thank you, Veterans. Today and every day, we salute you. 🇺🇸
