WELCOME TO BURNS PARK!

Burns Park Elementary School Mission Statement

To foster academic achievement in a safe and nurturing environment which develops responsible citizenship, a positive self-image, creativity, sensitivity to others and multi-cultural awareness. 

Dear Burns Park Families,

We had a great return to school this past week. Students seemed very happy to see their friends and teachers and get back to routines and schedules. As we planned through our Responsive Classroom lens, we focused on reaffirming our sense of community by:

Allowing students plenty of time to catch up socially through group sharing

Having lots of shared read alouds and class discussion to transition back in to content-based instruction

Providing plenty of time for games and play

It was wonderful to have at least three sunny days (in January!) plus Friday’s mystical fog to enjoy recess.

We’re hoping you can join us for our assembly this coming Friday in which we celebrate Dr. King’s legacy. Grades 3-5 plus Ms. Kind will meet from 9:05-9:25. Y5 plus Ms. Chester will meet from 9:30-9:50.

There will be no school for students next Monday, January 21st, in observance of the MLK national holiday.

Excitement is growing for next week’s Special Interest Fair which will be held on Wednesday, January 22nd. Details are found here. https://burnsparkpto.membershiptoolkit.com/calendar/event/8831993

Please let us know if you are interested in helping to plan and implement a focus and celebration on math for the month of February.

It’s going to be a great week at Burns Park Elementary. Please join us when you can.

Your Principals,

Chuck and Laura
