What a great time to be a Burton Panther!!!
Throughout February and March, Burton ISD is proud to provide the opportunity for our students to learn positive mental health practices through the Youth Aware of Mental (Y.A.M.) Health Program. This school-based program for young people ages 13-17 will learn about and explore the topic of mental health. YAM is an evidence-based program taking place in classrooms around the world where students actively engage with the topic of mental health through role-play and student-led discussions.
YAM has been conducted with more than 85,000 teenagers in 16 countries, and more than 800 people have been trained as YAM Instructors worldwide. By creating space for inclusive and youth-led dialogue about mental health, YAM helps grow solidarity among young people and promote positive mental health practices.

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!!!
