August 26 marks the anniversary of the certification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. At Burnet CISD, we honor the trailblazers who paved the way and recognize the strength, leadership, and contributions of women in our schools and community. Together, we continue working toward a future of opportunity and equality for all.

📢 New this school year: In compliance with Texas House Bill 1481, students may not use personal communication devices (like phones, smartwatches, or earbuds) during the school day. This policy applies to all BCISD campuses, PK–12.

Check out the flyer below for details on what’s prohibited and how each campus will implement the policy. Thank you for helping us keep our focus on learning—because we’re always Better Together! 💚🐾
