Please remember that Burkburnett ISD will be closed on Monday, the 15th, for a teacher work day.
We hope you enjoy your 4-day weekend! We will see you again on April 2nd!
At last night's School Board meeting, we were able to honor some of our amazing Teachers and Staff. We recognized our Campus Teachers of the Year. These outstanding educators were selected by their peers and colleagues as their much-deserving representatives for their respective campuses. The Teachers of the Year for 2024 are: IC Evans: Brittany Boyd John Tower: Amber Reitz Overton Ray: Rachel Moxley Burkburnett Middle School: Robin McAdams Burkburnett High School: Robyn Little Gateway Accelerated Academy: Tiffany Gunnels We also recognized a couple of our other departments. Our Transportation Dept announced our dedicated Bus Driver of the Year, Maddison Hickman. We also honored the leadership team in our Child Nutrition Department for passing our major audit with no issues! Those honored were Child Nutrition Director Deb Welch and her two main assistants Pam Cravens and Rosalinda Dominguez. All of these employees and colleagues are the epitome of The Bulldog Way, and we couldn't be the district we are without them.
There will be no school Friday, March 29th and Monday, April 1st. These days are designated as bad weather make-up days on the school calendar. Since we did not have to use them this winter, they are now surplus minutes and converted into days off. If you need a copy of the calendar, you can find it here: https://5il.co/1pqi8

Burkburnett ISD wants to recognize and celebrate all of our amazing counselors. Our counselors are tasked with doing more than they ever have before.
