John G. Tower Elementary

4th grade students honor our military kids by wearing purple in April!

Kindergarten students and families had a blast at John G Towers Family Game On Learning Night! 🧩 ✏️Various Math and ELAR games were played and each family was able to take a copy of the game home with their child for extra practice and to play again! 🖤🧡

More photos from "Movement with Moms" in PE!

"A Mother's LOVE is the ultimate sacrifice, for she gives everything she has for her children." "Movement with Moms" round 1 took place today with lots of smiles!

We look forward to seeing everyone out tomorrow night for our family learning night! It is a come-and-go event from 5:00-6:30pm where you can visit the classrooms of your choice and learn with your student(s)!

Congratulations to Kristen Lemons, a fabulous 1st grade teacher! She is our top stepper with a total of 345, 548 for the month of March. 🤩 John Tower Staff and Teachers have been participating in a step challenge to promote a healthy lifestyle. 💪

Some of our Student 2 Student Ambassadors came to help fill goodie bags for their fellow students this morning. Each Tower student will get a goodie bag on our official Purple Up day (April 17th), as we recognize our military-connected students for their strength and sacrifice, as well as our non-military connected students for all their support for our military connected students. It isn't easy for any of our students- some are the ones who are moving due to the military, and all of them have their friends leave due to the military. We are proud of all our Tower students. #MOMC

We would like to invite everyone to come out and join in some fun learning games on April 9th from 5:00-6:30pm. It is a come and go event, so stop by for some fun! We will also have several community representatives on campus to showcase their summer programs and events. We look forward to seeing everyone!

The BHS Boomtown Babes invite you to their Spring Show! Tickets are available at the door.

Kindergarten students were very EGGcited when their eggs hatched for their EGGcelent behavior during school this past week! 🐣Students were promoting good behavior as well as kindness, bucket filling and positivity. When they came inside from recess they were so excited to see their eggs had hatched and left them with a sweet treat to enjoy! 🐰

We hope you enjoy your 4-day weekend! We will see you again on April 2nd!

Purple Shirts that were preordered this month are scheduled to be passed out to students on Tuesday! Just in time to WEAR PURPLE on Wednesday! #MOMC #PurpleUp

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.

We are so excited as we welcome the Month of the Military Child (April) with dress up days (April 2nd-5th)! As always, these are optional, but let's have some fun! We look forward to seeing your child(ren)'s creativity! #MOMC #PurpleUp
