Safety first, Bulldogs! 🚌🐾

Students at Howe High School and Summit Hill Elementary recently participated in bus evacuation drills to practice safely exiting a school bus in the event of an emergency.

From our littlest Bulldogs to our high school students, everyone had the opportunity to learn and practice important bus safety procedures!

A big THANK YOU to our amazing transportation team and staff for helping our students build the confidence and skills they need to stay safe! ❤️

🐾 Hey, Bulldog Parents! Have you completed your student's registration?

Help us keep our Bulldogs safe and healthy! 🩺❤️

Did you know that our campus nurses need your student's completed medical registration forms to provide routine health services and ensure they have the information needed in an emergency?

Please take a few minutes to log in to the Parent Portal on the Howe ISD website and verify that all required forms are complete, including emergency contacts, health information, and necessary medical consents.

✅ Complete forms help our nurses provide the best possible care for your student!

Have questions? Reach out to your campus nurse. We're always happy to help!

🏈🏐 **Bulldog Fans, Postseason Is Almost Here!** 🖤🤍

As our volleyball and football teams prepare for postseason competition, we want to make sure our Bulldog families know where and how they can watch the action!

The UIL has specific rules regarding live-streaming and video broadcasts during playoff games, including who is allowed to broadcast and when schools can stream games.

📺 **What does this mean for our fans?**

Not every playoff game will automatically be available on our usual streaming platforms. Broadcast availability will depend on UIL approval and existing broadcast rights.

We've put together this quick guide to help explain the postseason broadcasting rules!

Thank you for supporting our Bulldogs as they head into postseason play! 🐾
