Bowie School Board renews its TEA waivers, approves next year’s calendar
Bowie School Trustees met Monday night for a brief agenda of routine business.
Due to the sports banquet scheduled for May 18, the board moved its regular third Monday meeting to May 18. Superintendent Steven Monkres said the board will need to meet within a certain time frame because votes from the May 9 election will have to be canvassed between May 12 and May 20.
Applications for a series of waivers from the Texas Education Agency were approved. Monkres said these waivers have to be renewed every three years. Read the full story in the mid-week News.
