Bowie ISD board authorizes annual interlocal busing agreement with four adjoining districts, 6–1

Bowie ISD Board of Trustees · February 16, 2026

Summary

The Bowie ISD Board approved authorizing the superintendent to enter an annual interlocal bussing agreement with four adjoining districts in a 6–1 vote after parents raised transportation concerns during public comment.

The Bowie ISD Board of Trustees voted to authorize the superintendent to enter into an annual interlocal bussing agreement with four adjoining school districts, approving the motion 6–1. Secretary Kent Dosch moved the recommendation and Trustee Jeff Jackson seconded; Trustee Angie Christmas cast the lone dissenting vote.

The decision follows public comments earlier in the meeting raising concerns about transportation for out-of-district transfer students; one parent, Michelle Parker, said she withdrew her child from Bowie and moved to Bellevue citing bussing problems. The board did not specify additional terms of the interlocal agreement in the minutes. The authorization directs district leadership to finalize an annual agreement and return any required documentation to the board as appropriate.
