Burlington Seniors presented projects last evening. They did well sharing the process and what they learned.
FCCLA students addressed the School Board last week and did a fantastic job. They were practiced, professional, and articulate. Kyler, Weston, and Jordan will be traveling to represent Burlington at nationals, with advisor Patricia Casey.
Elementary StuCo has planned an assembly on April 18 @2:15. The NED Show centers around three important messages: Never give up, Encourage others, and Do your best. During the assembly, students will learn about the importance of these three life skills while also enjoying storytelling, magic, humor, and yo-yo tricks. Parents are welcome to attend. http://www.thenedshow.com/ned_program.html
It is College Shout Out Day across the district. Staff and students are wearing apparel with favorite college/university logos. It is a fun way to provide exposure to post secondary institutions.
"College Shout Out Day" today is a chance for adults to show off our college pride and for students to start thinking about life after high school. Staff wore college gear and shared fun facts about after-HS educational experiences. Students were able to collect signatures from different staff members and tried to solve the trivia clues. It’s been a fun day!
Our HS StuCo would like to recognize our amazing secretaries and librarians here in Burlington. They do amazing work, and we appreciate all that they do for our students, parents, and community. Every day is a busy one for them, and they truly keep the school running like a well-oiled machine. Rebecca, Judy, Dory, and Karen…THANK YOU for your efforts!! You’re a huge part of what makes our school so great.
1st graders learned about the wildlife in Wyoming from Game and Fish friend, Mrs. Tara Hodges. She talked about the adaptations that carnivores, omnivores, and herbivores have that help them survive in their wonderful Wyoming habitats.

Burlington Seniors completed their Capstone Trip organized by Mr. George. This trip has become a great educational tradition. Kudos to Mr. George for all of his time and effort to plan an outstanding itinerary. Based on early reports, this trip was memorable and enjoyable. Students have the opportunity to connect to our country's roots. They also taste what life in large metropolitan settings is like. It is an opportunity that leaves lasting impressions, memories, and experiences.
The student councils are working to gather a collection of snacks and drinks for our firemen and EMTs as an expression of gratitude for all that they do...as well as provide an opportunity for students to give back to the community. Please join us for this effort during the week of the 25th of March. Thanks!
