Burruss Weekly Newsletter
Staff are back this week wrapping up the year--we already miss the kids!
As we wind down this school year, it is time to start preparing for next school year. One important process is engaging your input as we build class lists for next year. Please complete one form per child you have at Burruss: https://forms.gle/BRCjG1MwUBcZ5ZEN7. Responses will be collected until June 5.

Register for ASP/BSP by July 1!
ASP/BSP 2026-2027 Registration
Families who wish to be enrolled in the program for the 2026-2027 school year must complete registration by July 1st. Even if families are currently enrolled this school year, a new registration is required for the upcoming school year. We strongly encourage all families to register for the program for the peace of mind of having this dismissal option in the event it is ever needed.
Registration fees will remain the same: $15 for Before School, $25 for After School, and $40 for families enrolling in both programs.
Program hours will also remain unchanged. Before School starts at 7:00 a.m. until the start of the school day. After School from 3:30-6:00 p.m. (4:15 p.m. at MCAA, and 2:15 p.m. at ELC). Daily tuition rates will remain the same as well.
