Awards & Honors
| Extra Mile Award - Introduced by Mr. Okruhlik in
October of 2000, the “Extra Mile Award” is recognition given to
those employees, students, volunteers, and community members who
are helping to take the District “Beyond Exemplary.” This award
is presented at the monthly school board meetings. Campuses may
nominate an Extra Mile recipient by contacting the
Superintendents office. See this
month's Extra Mile Award recipients on the Board Highlights page.
Currently
the awards page is a tribute to all of the outstanding volunteer
activities which the students of BISD participate in throughout
the year. BISD is proud to be a part of the type of efforts it
takes for any community to prosper. Through the leadership and
guidance from campus staff members, many students have the
opportunity to learn skills that will lead them to be future
volunteers in our community. Listed below are many of the
volunteer activities and organizations BISD schools have
participated in or assisted this past year:
