Greetings, Bulldog Nation! FALL SOCIAL EVENT - This year the traditional Homecoming Dance has been reimagined as a Fall Social. Jointly hosted by the PTSA and Bowie Student Council, this on-campus event is scheduled for the evening of Friday Saturday, October 23, 2021. The event will be limited to Bowie students; non-Bowie guests will not be admitted. Event times and more information about tickets, safety protocols, and all the fun activities are coming soon.

Greetings, Bulldog Nation! STUDENT FLU VACCINE CLINIC - To keep our students in school and learning, we want to avoid a severe flu season exacerbating the impact of Covid-19 on our community. In partnership with Austin ISD, Health Hero America is making the flu vaccine available to Bowie students on Wednesday, October 20 at Bowie. There is no out of pocket cost or copay. If you would like your child to participate in this on-campus flu vaccine clinic, please fill out the Consent Form and return it to the main office by Wednesday, October 13.

Greetings, Bulldog Nation! UIL ELIGIBILITY - You have likely heard that Austin ISD transitioned from a six, six weeks academic calendar to a nine weeks report card cycle for the 2021-22 school year. To calculate the semester average in a course, each of the two nine weeks report card grades will comprise 40% of the grade and the semester final exam will count 20% of the grade. The University Interscholastic League (UIL) establishes the rules for all UIL activities and standards of eligibility for students to earn the privilege of representing their schools in interschool contests.

Parents and Guardians, Over the last couple of weeks, we’ve experienced a disturbing amount of vandalism across the campus. The vandalism at Bowie is mostly in student restrooms and has included removing or bending stall doors, ripping off all of the soap, as well as both types of paper dispensers from the walls or stalls, and partially dismantling or disabling toilets and urinals. There has also been an increased amount of graffiti or stickers placed on walls and windows around campus.

Greetings, Bulldog Nation! BOWIE SPIRIT - Thank you for attending Back-to-School Night last Thursday. Over one hundred families attended in-person sessions and visited classrooms, while hundreds more tuned in virtually to learn more about Bowie’s plan to support students and build community. Your interest in “all-things-Bowie'' was further evidenced by the great turn-out for the PTSA-sponsored Bulldogs and Hotdogs community event on Saturday night. We are keeping the enthusiasm going this week with Unity Day on Friday, September 17.
