The weather could have played a factor but less than 30 people attended Thursday night’s public meeting on Bowie Independent School District’s discussion of a four-day instructional week.
A thunderstorm was moving through Bowie just as the 5:30 p.m. meeting got underway, but hearty souls ran inside shaking off the rain to hear local school officials ideas on the schedule change.
Superintendent Blake Enlow welcomed the small group and presented a PowerPoint program on the possible transition to a pilot four-day instructional week.
