I feel so grateful for the AMAZING teachers we have here in Burlington, including our counselor, paras, secretaries, and other staff who teach and interact with students every day. Each of you has a massive impact on students! I was fortunate to meet John Spencer at the Wyoming Principals' conference I attended this month, who shared a fitting video describing great teachers, like ours:

Congratulations to the HS Drama Class for a great performance of "The Three Wishes of Aladdin" last night. The performance was enjoyed by all who attended.
Congratulations to our 1A North 6-Man All-Conference Football earners.
Michael Broederlow and Sky Olsen were chosen for Honor Choir. They participated with other HS students from around the state and represented BHS very well!
BHS Student Council participated in the annual WASC leadership conference where Taft Winters received the "Hidden Hero" award, BHS was awarded "Honor Council" for the 2nd year, and our students presented a breakout session featuring the importance of communication within a council and as a school. They did amazing!
Today, our Burlington School chapter of National Honor Society invited our local senior citizens for a Thanksgiving Luncheon at the Burlington School cafeteria! After a delicious meal prepared by our kitchen staff, students and community members chatted with each other, and even enjoyed a bit of holiday trivia with a Jeopardy game. The members of the National Honor Society are excited to bring back this tradition and hope to see more community members in years to come!
Congratulations to new NHS inductees: James M. McNiven, Maddie Aagard, Bradford Davidson, Sophie Olson, and Rae Leonhardt! NHS leaders explained the pillars of Scholarship, Service, Leadership, and Character and what that means for our Burlington chapter, inviting guest speaker Blake Smith to elaborate. The ceremony ended with the lighting of the candles and some light refreshments.
BHS' National Honor Society would like to extend an invitation to our senior citizens to join us for a Thanksgiving lunch in the school cafeteria on Thursday, 11-20. Hope to see you here!
Come see what FFA's all about on Thursday, 11-20!
As part of our Senior Success Skills class, all seniors participate in mock interviews in front of a panel of volunteers. This experience helps to prepare students for a real-world setting, providing an opportunity to use their newly revised resumes and helping students to apply the leadership skills they've been developing and discussing. Students receive feedback from the panel on the interview skills they demonstrated.

Not just today, but every day... THANK YOU, Veterans!
5th graders sported a 'stache during lunch saying, "We earned it!" Don't they look contemplative?
Congratulations to our Lady Huskies who earned All Conference Honors.
Mrs. Kuper's MS drama class put on an exceptional performance and our elementary loved booing the evil queen and interacting as the audience. These BMS students are very talented thespians!
