Bossier Schools has revised its cell phone policy in response to a new state law that restricts students from using cell phones and other electronic devices during the instructional day. Please note the following revisions:
Cell phones must be turned off and stowed during instructional time, including from the time students get on/off the bus or in/out of a personal vehicle while on campus;
Electronic communication devices, including but not limited to personal computers, laptops, electronic instruments, iPads, iPods, tablet devices, e-readers or similar devices, must be powered off and properly stowed for the duration of the school day.
Each violation will result in the collection of the cell phone/electronic device. More information regarding disciplinary action can be found in school handbooks.
*Please note the revised policy does not apply to students who have an Individualized Education Program (IEP)/Individualized Accommodation Plan (IAP), Section 504 plan or Individualized Health Plan that requires use of an electronic telecommunication device.
The Bossier Chamber of Commerce will be holding their annual 'Pack the Bus' school supply drive benefiting Bossier Schools. We hope you'll help out with this year's event! Come by the Wal-Mart Supercenter Thursday, August 1 from 11:30 to 1:30 and drop off much needed supplies to help our teachers fill the gaps in their classrooms.
Parents/Guardians - Be on the lookout for an email on AUGUST 1 with instructions and details about Rooms, the exciting feature for parent-teacher chat.

Our T.L. Rodes teachers and staff are working hard to prepare for our upcoming school year. Please consider showing them some love by helping provide door prizes for our annual lock-in. If your family or business would like to donate door prizes, gift cards, teacher accesories & supplies or a gift basket, please see the graphic below for contact information. All donations are due by August 1st. Thank you!
We've had several questions regarding registration! Maybe this will help:
*If your child was enrolled in Bossier Schools last year '23/'24 (even PreK), you will need to do Annual Registration! This is updating contacts & providing 2 CURRENT Proofs of residence & checking some important boxes.
*If you did Kindergarten Registration back in April/May, you are good to go as long as it was accepted.
*If you are new to Bossier Schools, you will complete new student registration.
*If you are transferring within Bossier Schools, there are instructions for that too!
Here's more info:
