Superintendent's Letter

January 29, 2024

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

Wow! January comes to a close this week and we begin February. We are rapidly moving through the 2023-2024 school year. 

Congratulations to the Burton ISD Child Nutrition Program who successfully completed the 2023 Farm Fresh Challenge through the Texas Department of Agriculture. Our team worked to establish new connections with local agricultural producers for the freshest and healthiest locally produced foods being served to our students. Thanks to the staff for their hard work and continued efforts to ensure that we are providing energy for learning, nutrition for growing, and lessons in healthy lifestyles. 

Good luck to our Elementary UIL participants competing today and Elementary and Junior High students attending the Beta Club Convention.  

Burton ISD Building Project Update: Lots of rain this week. It is definitely impacting the construction progress. Burton ISD continues to host on-site daily and weekly meetings with contractors and suppliers to identify and discuss the building project. 

Burton ISD welcomes your involvement, appreciates everyone’s effort to collaborate, and is thankful for your support throughout the Facilities Construction Project process. Please email questions to bondinfo@stu.burtonisd.net.

Please feel free to come visit Burton Independent School District and thank you in advance for taking the time to find out more about our schools, our professional staff, our exemplary students, and our excellent academic programs. Burton Schools is a perfect place to get an education that will prepare your child for a bright future. 

There is a tremendous amount of community support that goes into the success of our programs in Burton ISD. We appreciate everyone who helps make a positive impact on our schools. All of us working cooperatively make Burton ISD better together. So very proud to be a BURTON PANTHER! 

Lots of great things going on this school year. Follow all of our activities on the Burton ISD website @ www.burtonisd.net, check out the Burton ISD app, and keep up with the latest happenings on the Burton ISD Facebook page and other social media venues. 

The pride of the Burton Panthers is embedded in all of us whether we are a student, an alumni, a community member, a staff member and employee, a parent, board member and/or a 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!!!  Have a blessed day and GO BIG RED!!!
