Here’s to a Happy Memorial Day and wishing an even happier start of the final week in the 2014-2015 school year for the Burton Independent School District!
I would like to start by offering a huge Congratulations to our graduating Senior Class of 2015. Best of luck on the beginning of this new chapter in your lives. I have no doubt this group of students will carry the pride of Burton Schools with them in all of their future endeavors. These students received $324,153.50 in scholarships towards continuing post-secondary education, along with numerous academic and athletic awards. Absolutely fabulous!
Not only do our students shine academically, but they bring home record-setting athletic accomplishments. The Burton Lady Panthers tied for the Class 1A Team Champions at this year’s State Track Meet in Austin and also earned all district softball selection honors. So proud of all of our students that participate in school activities.
This week will be busy as we wind down towards graduation, which is scheduled for 8:00 on Friday, May 29th at Panther Stadium. Please come out to honor our Seniors as they journey into the world beyond high school!
Also, this week Kindergarten Commencement is scheduled for Wednesday, May 27th with Elementary awards to follow. Thursday, May 28th and Friday, May 29th are early release days for all students.
Finally, I would like to extend a warm thank you for all they have done for Burton Schools to Mr. Charles Hodde and Mrs. Anna Breddin who both will be retiring this year. Enjoy yourselves!!!
I hope the students, staff, and parents of Burton Independent School District all have a great summer!!!
