Baker Alert


Not much going on this week except for TAKS and rain. How dreary!
The teachers will have something to look forward to next week- bbq at the Teacher's Appreciation Luncheon on Thursday the 7th. If you are able to bring a dessert (anything from store-bought cookies to a homemade cake) both the teachers and PTO will appreciate it. Just drop it by the library on Thursday morning. Thanks!

Yay! New Board Members

Yay for Melissa Drane and Casey Tidmore stepping up to a challenge and becoming our new Treasurer and Secretary respectively! Don't worry though, there are plenty more volunteer opportunities available for everyone! Do you have a desire to help with the marquee? Mrs. Montgomery is always very grateful to the kind person who does this duty. Many thanks to Clair who has done it all this year but will be moving on to Middle School.

Tomorrow is CiCi's pizza night- eat in or make it an easy night and get take-out.

We entering the last months of school and there is still plenty in the works- the Carnival with even more inflatables this year, the Teacher Appreciation Luncheon and we hope to be selling pre-packaged school supplies too.

Last of all, CHECK LOST AND FOUND! It is brimming full of winter coats. Everything will be gone Friday afternoon so make sure your child has all of their coats and jackets.

1st Grade Wins Again!

For the second time this year, 1st grade turned in the most Box Tops. They had almost double of what the rest of the other grades turned in. They will be getting another pop corn party popped by the fine ladies of PTO.

Lost and Found is full of jackets! The unclaimed jackets will be gone by the of the week so make sure your child checks for any missing clothing items before Friday.

PTO Meeting this Thursday for Everyone

Pictures of the awesome David Chicken concert and slime-ing are coming as soon as I learn how to create a slide show. The kids really enjoyed it- some danced the entire time!

If you were there you would have also seen PTO present flowers to Clair Wall and Besty & Mary Tunnell, PTO volunteers for YEARS who are moving on to Middle School. (In the photo there's Clair and her daughter Cat, Mrs. Bendorf, Mary Tunnell and Betsy Tunnell). Burks was so lucky to have them help out with events over the year and now there is a big void to fill. Come help fill it by attending PTO's meeting this Thursday, April 5th at 5pm. See where you can pitch in so that we can continue to have fun activities for the kids.
