Principal's Message
Hello Burr Families,
Welcome back! I truly hope that everyone enjoyed the winter break and had the opportunity to spend time with your family and friends! We have been so busy planning a wonderful month ahead full of fun and excitement! Some great upcoming events include March is Reading Month, our PTO Mardi Gras Masquerade Ball, Pathways to Success, and Kindergarten Open House!
During the month of March, we will be utilizing some of our Title 1 funds to provide a book for every family. This is an exciting opportunity for the entire school to participate in the One Book One School initiative. Our book choice for this family read will be Ways to Make Sunshine. We will have a special newsletter specifically focused on this book that will be interactive and informational. We will also have a March Is Reading Month Calendar with fun and creative ways to participate and celebrate reading this month with your child(ren). The calendar is attached at the bottom of this BBB.
Utica Community Schools will once again host the Pathways to Success at Henry Ford II HS on Thursday, March 3rd from 6:00-8:30pm. This event will showcase all of the opportunities available to all UCS students throughout their educational journey.
Our class of 2035 will be welcomed into Burr Elementary during our Kindergarten Open House on Thursday, March 24th at 7pm. The evening will provide parents with information about kindergarten readiness, as well as a chance to learn about the district and our school. We are excited to welcome new Bulldogs to our family.
As always, thank you for all that you do to support your child and our school community. Together we can ensure success for all students!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Poleski
