What a great time to be a Burton Panther!!!
Today is a District Holiday as we recognize Martin Luther King Jr. for his nonviolent activism in the Civil Rights Movement which protested racial discrimination in federal and state law.
Welcome to the Burton Independent School District weekly update. Bond Project information will be shared as it pertains to the planning and construction of our new facilities.
Circle H Dirt Work and Excavation is fully engaged in the district building project alongside of Reliance Architecture, Engineering, the Project Manager and the Job Superintendent with DSA Construction Management. Communication with contractors is ongoing to coordinate scheduling and identify additional cost savings. Consultants continue to verify contractor submittals and VE items. Please feel free to email any questions to bondinfo@stu.burtonisd.net.
January is School Board Recognition Month and Burton ISD celebrates its trustees for their dedication and commitment to the district and students. The theme of this year’s School Board Recognition Month is Forward, Together which highlights the collaboration among school district leadership, staff, parents, and the community on behalf of students. Recognizing the efforts of our elected school board is so important because of all the hard work trustees put into making our district a success. We applaud the efforts of trustees in providing leadership and good governance so that Burton ISD can focus on educating the public schoolchildren in our care. Our school board is critical to the success of students and the future of Texas. Jeff Harmel - Board President, Misty Lucherk - Board Vice President, Donna Putnam - Board Secretary, Demetrius Colvin, Sr., David Warner, Sr., Dean Fuchs, and Brian Hinze. We are thankful for your service and appreciate all that you do for Burton ISD.
Please feel free to come visit Burton Independent School District and thank you in advance for taking time to find out more about our schools, our professional staff, our exemplary students, and our excellent academic programs. Burton Schools are a perfect place to get an education that will prepare your child for a bright future.
There is a tremendous amount of community support that goes into the success of our programs in Burton ISD. We appreciate everyone who helps make a positive impact on our schools. All of us working cooperatively make Burton ISD better together. So proud to be a BURTON PANTHER!
Lots of great things going on this school year. Follow all of our activities on the Burton ISD website @ www.burtonisd.net, check out the Burton ISD app, and keep up with the latest happenings on the Burton ISD Facebook page and other social media venues.
The pride of the Burton Panthers is embedded in all of us whether we are a student, an alumni, a community member, a staff member and employee, a parent, board member and/or a proud supporter and in many cases all of the above. We love our Panthers and like to think that the culture we are providing in educating our students is a reason why parents want their children to attend Burton ISD. We value our school district and always put students first. For the 2022-2023 school year, Learning is Our Superpower as we are Building Our Future!!! Have a blessed day! GO BIG RED!
