SchoolStore Fundraiser Update

Thank you all for your continued support for BES through our SchoolStore fundraiser! Together we have raised over $8000 for BES! Teachers have been gifted numerous gift cards for their classrooms from your generosity! This fundraiser will continue through the end of the school year. One easy way to join in the support is through purchases families already make from larger stores like Wal-Mart, Home Depot, Sam's Club and other merchants who give back to schools. Anyone can join in by going to SchoolStore.com, finding our school and then making their regular online purchases. A full list of participating merchants can be found there as well.

Mark Your Calendars!

Christmas Concert

Please mark your calendars for our annual Christmas Concert on December 14th! Our students are excited to share some holiday cheer and showcase all their hard work. More information in regards to time and location will be sent out soon!

BES Thanksgiving Dinner

Burlington Elementary School is excited to celebrate our annual Thanksgiving Dinner with our students on November 19th! This is a special time for students to enjoy a delicious meal together and celebrate the season of thankfulness. We encourage students to dress nicely and remember to use their best manners.

Due to seating accommodations and meal count limitations, parents will not be able to join students for the Thanksgiving Dinner. The cafeteria is rearranged to allow students to experience a nicer dining setting than typical days. Thank you for your understanding!

Mr. Fitchen Shares His Love for SCIENCE!

Mr. Fitchen is BACK! As a former BES teacher, Mr. Fitchen brings experience and a deep passion for hands-on science education. Before transitioning to teaching, he worked as a scientist, and his enthusiasm for making science engaging and interactive is evident. Mr. Fitchen shares science lessons weekly with fourth-grade classrooms and the kids and teachers love it! Thank you, Mr. Fitchen for your time and energy at BES!
