Superintendent's Letter - Monday, March 8, 2021

 Good morning from BURTON INDEPENDENT SCHOOL DISTRICT - #TEAMBURTON!!!

March 8, 2021 

Praying everyone is staying healthy and well!!


A great message from the Association of Texas Professional Educators (ATPE) State President, Jimmy Lee:


We are getting down to the final stretch. It is hard to believe that three-quarters of the school year is behind us. As we make a final push toward the finish line, let’s look back and be proud of what we have accomplished in this most unusual year as educators. 


When we started school in August and September, some of the things we heard again and again were “I don’t think I can do this” and “we can’t do this.” But look at where we are now: Together we have made it this far, and together we are nearing the finish line. The road hasn’t been easy; no one can deny that. Many times, it was only by sheer will and determination that a task was accomplished.


BUT NOTHING IS STRONGER THAN A DETERMINED EDUCATOR. You have proven, not only to yourself but also to the rest of the world, that you will get the job done—no matter the circumstances. That is powerful and speaks volumes about who you are as an educator and as a person.


I have witnessed educators giving more than they have ever given, doing things they have never done, and going beyond expectations. Because of your servant hearts, students throughout Texas have benefited. This spirit is what educators are made of and shows just how much this profession means to us.


A mere thank-you is not enough to show the gratitude you deserve for all you have done—you deserve so much more than that. It is truly an honor to be associated with such dedicated professionals like you. 


As we move into the spring and a time of renewal, it is my hope that you will spend a few moments encouraging yourself and your colleagues to finish strong—our students are so worth it. Like I said in August, together we CAN do this! Stay strong, my … educator friends. Know that you are appreciated more than you can imagine.  


WELL SAID AND JOB WELL DONE!!!
