Bowie Intermediate encouraged students to participate in a pumpkin character decorating contest. This project was completely voluntary, and 96 students participated. The students were to select a book and then decorate a pumpkin of the main character from a book they had read. We are so proud of the level of participation and quality of work that was turned in. Outstanding job to the students and families #Bowiebuilt

🚍✨ It's National School Bus Safety Week! (Oct 21-25) ✨🚍 The U.S. Department of Transportation’s NHTSA reminds all drivers to slow down and stay alert around school buses. Remember, passing a school bus is illegal and can be deadly for kids. 🛑 When you see flashing red lights and a stop arm extended, you MUST come to a complete stop. This isn’t just a suggestion; it’s the law! 🔶 Yellow lights mean the bus is getting ready to stop. Slow down and prepare to stop your vehicle. You can only move once the red lights are off and the bus is moving again. Stay aware of the “Danger Zone”—the area around the bus where children are most at risk, including: -10 feet in front of the bus -10 feet on either side of the bus -Behind the bus Let’s work together to keep our children safe!
