UPDATE: Thursday, January 29, 2026
Bossier Schools will remain CLOSED for students and teachers Friday, January 30 out of an abundance of caution due to continued safety concerns on our campuses as a result of the wintry weather.
We cannot risk your children’s return to school until the thick ice accumulation melts or can be removed from awnings, walkways, bus ramps and parking lots.
Our district leaders and 12-month employees will be working Friday to get our schools and centers ready for reopening Monday, February 2, and to de-ice and prepare for another round of frigid temperatures being forecast for the weekend. This is a work day at our schools and centers, and they will not be open for normal operations.
We know this week has been unusual and Bossier Schools greatly appreciates your understanding, support and working with us to make the best of the situation.

Out of an abundance of caution, all Bossier schools and district offices will remain CLOSED Thursday, January 29 as the district continues to assess the impact the recent winter storm is having on operations.
Though the ice is melting, considerable hazards remain on roadways, bus ramps, in car lines and on our school campuses, making it unsafe for our students and staff to return. In addition, the National Weather Service is forecasting freezing fog overnight and into Thursday morning, heightening the danger of traveling.
It is our hope to reopen Friday, January 30 after another day of above-freezing temperatures. We greatly appreciate your patience and understanding this week and will provide another update at 4 p.m. Thursday.

Bossier Chamber of Commerce awards the students with big money in each of the three grade bands, and the winning t-shirt designs will be printed and offered to students/families to purchase. Each t-shirt sold will generate $3.00 for the school that sold the t-shirt.
This contest is open to all students, not just military connected students.

The students dove into the history and meaning behind the red, white, and blue. To wrap up our lesson, we got hands-on with two special activities:Students colored their own flags, paying close attention to the specific details that make it unique.The Fold: We practiced the traditional 13-fold technique, learning the discipline and respect required to handle the flag properly.
It was wonderful to see these young leaders showing such pride and curiosity!
