THE BURR PTO PRESENTS 


Thank You, Burr Community!


What a super year it has been! Thank you to all of the members of the Burr community who made this year possible. So many of you supported our kids and our school by donating money and/or time to help make this school year a huge success, and we cannot thank you enough. Some of the things that were made possible this year thanks to the support of this community: 
  • Community Building: Fun community events like the Back to School and End of the Year Picnics; BooFest and May Fair. Amazing opportunities to share and learn about each other's cultures at Dia de los Muertos, Diwali, Lunar New Year and World Cultures celebrations. Informative and important discussions led by FORJ at Book Clubs and Movie Nights. 
  • Educational Support: Programs that enhance the classroom experience like the Creative Arts & Sciences, Child Abuse Prevention, Understanding our Differences and Garden Days programming. In addition, new library books, teacher/classroom supplies, and teacher/staff appreciation and recognition help show support for our teachers and staff. 
  • Playground Improvements: Significant upgrades to outdoor play spaces including new timbers, new accessible matting, picnic tables and a Gaga Ball pit help improve the safety, inclusivity and fun our kids and the broader community can enjoy. 

Finally, we'd like to take a moment to give a special thanks to a few members of the PTO Board who are finishing their terms this year. Alyssa Haggerty, Pam Rajasekhar and Jenn Reale are all wrapping up after serving on the board for the last few years. Their ideas, energy and support has been invaluable through a particularly tough time, and we are so grateful for all that they have contributed!
