What a great week to be a Burton Panther!


Observed the first Monday in September, Labor Day is an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. Labor Day is a day set aside to pay tribute to working men and women and to show the public the strength and common spirit of the trade and labor organizations.

Burton Independent School District is growing. Our elementary school has increased enrollment by more than 20% over the last five years. The elementary building is at 94% functional capacity, with only 19 seats remaining creating the necessity to expand into the junior high building and push for junior high to move into secondary facilities. 

Elementary Growth

Burton High School is one of the main projects that will be addressed in the 2021 bond proposal. Check out what BHS will receive if the bond proposal is approved by voters.

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 try to do what is in the best interest of students. We are prepared to Dream Big, Sparkle More, and Shine Bright as the Future is Now for the Burton Panthers!!! Have a blessed week and GO BIG RED!
