Superintendent's Letter

December 11, 2023

What a great time to be a Burton Panther!!!

It is such a busy, but definitely special, time of the school year as we celebrate the Christmas Spirit and a season of goodwill. A huge thank you to the very generous donations of staff gift cards from DSA Construction Management, Reliance Architecture, and Hellas Construction. A little something extra for all that our staff does for Burton ISD. 

Congrats to Zach Purvis for earning the #1 alto saxophone seat out of all 7th and 8th grade 1A through 4A and private schools Association of Texas Small School Bands (ATSSB) All-Region competition. What a great accomplishment!  

Come join in the holiday festivities of the Elementary Christmas Program on Friday, December 15th @ 8:30 a.m. in the high school gym. Always a fun time! Early release for semester break on Friday @ 12:45 p.m. Students return to classes on Wednesday, January 3, 2024. 

Burton ISD wishes everyone a very MERRY CHRISTMAS AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

All of us working cooperatively make Burton ISD better together. So very proud to be a BURTON PANTHER! There are lots of great things going on this school year.

The pride of the Burton Panthers is embedded in all of us whether we are a student, alumni, community members, staff members and employees, a parent, board members, and/or 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 put students first. For the 2023-2024 school year, Learning is Llamazing as we Rise Up @ Burton ISD!!! Again, MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR! Have a blessed day and GO BIG RED!!!
