Good morning! Testing season is upon us and our students are
prepared for what I know will be continued progress towards academic mastery of
meeting state standards.
I received a letter from State Representative Phil
Stephenson, District 85 with a copy of an article written for the Dallas
Morning-News this last week discussing how Character Education must be the core
of Texas Schools.
As we seem to always be challenged by problems facing public
schools, it is important to remember that while there are countless theories
linking academic success to instructor quality, student demographics,
facilities, technology, class size, etc. character education might also be a
predictor of a child’s academic and long-term success.
I believe that Burton ISD promotes character building
opportunities that allow our students to flourish. I also am quite sure that
our parents are laying the foundations to encourage children to embrace
educational accomplishments in our school by instilling character building
skills. I applaud all efforts to support our students and help them succeed!

April 3rd Burton ISD will observe Good Friday and there
will be no school.
