The Teacher Center will temporarily close due to a staffing shortage from Sept. 5th – Nov. 7th. The Print Shop will serve as an alternative facility for FBISD faculty, staff, and volunteers. The Print Shop will take orders and has the capacity to complete larger jobs than the Teacher Center. There is a fee for each completed job at the Print Shop. FBISD employees and PTO members with a tax-exempt form will receive a discounted price. The Print Shop is open to the public, but one will need to set up an account using a credit card to access services. Faculty using the Print shop will need to get their work approved by their campus principal and the campus will be charged. In addition to principal approval, faculty members will need their campus / department budget codes.
