					<description><![CDATA[The district recently received notice that our request for a missed school day waiver was denied. When we submitted the waiver, we included the two weather days in January along with the closure that occurred at the beginning of the school year due to the catastrophic HVAC failure at the elementary campus.

However, the state did not recognize the early closure as a missed instructional day because school had not officially started. Since that day could not be counted, the district does not meet the waiver criteria based on minutes lost.

Because of this, Blooming Grove ISD will need to adjust the schedule in May to ensure we meet the state-required instructional minute requirements. The board approved moving May 4th and May 11th to instructional days.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[💎✨ BLING BLING REPORT – Region 3 Unequipped Regional Powerlifting Meet | Royse City ✨💎

The platform was set, the lights were bright, and our girls delivered at the Region 3 Unequipped Regional Powerlifting Meet in Royse City on Tuesday! From first attempt to final pull, strength, and heart were on full display.

🏅 4th Place – 198 lbs
🔥 Gracie Jacinto (JR)
🏅 7th Place – 114 lbs
🔥 Maeli Lawhon (SR)

Everyone hit a new PR in at least one lift — proof that preparation met opportunity. That’s what competing with confidence, composure, and courage looks like! 💪⚡

These young women didn’t just lift weights — they represented with class, focus, and relentless determination. The coaching staff couldn’t be prouder of the fight they showed on every attempt.

And to our unequipped senior — a back-to-back Regional Qualifier — your leadership has set the standard. Your legacy is built on consistency, toughness, and heart. 🌟

The bar keeps rising — and so do we. 💎💪]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Thursday, December 8th performance has been canceled due to unforeseen circumstances. However, the show must go on with Saturday's evening performance and Sunday's afternoon performance. 
If you have purchased tickets for Thursday's performance, your ticket will be valid for either of the weekend shows. If you need a refund, please email anicholson@bgrove.org.

Come and watch the Blooming Grove Mane Stage Theatre's presentation of the Brothers Grimm Spectaculathon. It is an attempt to tell all 209 of the Brothers Grimm fairy tales! Such an event has never before been attempted (probably) in the history of theatre. You will see classics like Cinderella, Rapunzel, and Red Riding Hood, as well as many lesser-known stories!]]></description>

BGISD request for parents to go on-line at ‘bgrove.org’, complete the necessary ‘Registration’ information for their child/ children. Parents may include more than one child on the ‘Parent Choice Commitment Form’ for registration.

A huge ‘Thank You’ to everyone that have completed this registration task!

BGISD understands that everyone does not have the capability to go ‘on-line’ and complete registration.

FOR ANY HIGH SCHOOL OR JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL family that cannot go ‘on-line’ for registration, the computer lab at the junior high school will be available on Tuesday, August 11, 5:00 -8:00 PM to help HIGH SCHOOL AND JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL family with ‘on-line’ registration.
Spanish translators will be available on that day.
Only parents are needed for registration. We advise that students be left at home. Social Distancing format will be followed. Mask are required.]]></description>

2.	Each senior may decorate their vehicle of choice - one senior per vehicle unless they are siblings. Personal family vehicles or golf cart type vehicles are acceptable.  Students may only ride in the back of a truck if parent/ guardian is the driver.  (Decorations will be viewed and approved by school official at the time of parade line up, so make sure all decorations are appropriate.)

3.	Parade line up will be at 9:30am in the parking lot beside the football field.  Vehicles will line up in the order that they arrive.  Someone will come to your vehicle to get your senior information sheet.  Please practice social distancing guidelines during line up.  Parade will start at 10:00am.  YOU MUST BE ON TIME!  THE PARADE WILL START WITHOUT YOU!!!

4.	No candy or items may be thrown to the public during the parade.  

5.	The police and fire department will lead the parade route, so follow the vehicle in front of you (slowly) along the route.  Coach Chandler will introduce each senior as their vehicle approaches the designated area.  Please stop your vehicle in that area until Coach Chandler has finished announcing your senior information.  Then follow the parade route until you have completed the route.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[We are seeing many cases of flu and strep. Please help us keep the illnesses down by doing the following:
1. Wash your hands frequently. Soap and water are the best. Hand sanitizer works when you cannot use soap and water. 
2. Cough or sneeze into your elbow or a tissue, then wash your hands.
3. Stay home until you are 24 hours fever free without taking any medicine.
Students can bring hand sanitizer and a bottle to drink water out of to avoid sharing germs.
Please remember that returning to school before you are well or fever free makes it easier to get sick again and exposes others to the germs. 
Thank you for your cooperation,
Cheryl Hollingsworth, RN
BGISD District Nurse]]></description>
