Exempt Day Fundraisers

Texas Public Schools that participate in the National School Lunch Program or School Breakfast Program may sell food and/or beverages as part of a fundraiser that does not meet the Competitive Food Nutritional Standards during the school day for up to six days per school year on each campus if no food and/or beverages for an exempted fundraiser are sold in competition with school meals served or consumed in the food service area. The BISD campus principals had the opportunity to select the six days for 2016-2017. They are: Halloween, October 31, 2016; Christmas, December 20, 2016; Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2017; Charro Days, February 23, 2017; Easter, April 13, 2017; and the last day of school, June 6, 2017.
