BISD trustees to consider staff bonus
The trustees of the Bowie Independent School District will meet at 7:30 a.m. on Jan. 8 to discuss possible staff bonuses as Coronavirus relief.
The board will consider a one-time COVID-19 Recognition of Effort bonus of $300. This item was raised at the last board meeting prior to the holiday break.
Superintendent Blake Enlow and Chief Financial Officer Paula Peterson told the board in December they looked at the budget and feel they could accommodate an amount in the $250 – $300 range for its 282 staff members. There was board consensus to prepare a budget amendment.
Bowie High School will perform its fall musical “The Lightning,” at 4 p.m. on Oct. 13 in the Bowie Junior High Auditorium.
It is free and family-friendly. Director April Word said this musical is an adaptation of the Percy Jackson series.
