Teacher of the Year

Congratulations to Mr. Young, Burks' Teacher of Year! Besides being Burks' energetic reading teacher, Mr. Young is always game for such things as manning the dunking booth during the carnival or dressing up like Beyonce for TAKS. You can show Mr. Young and all the teachers at Burks your appreciation by dropping a dessert off at school this Thursday morning for the Teacher Appreciation Luncheon.

Fliers about important PTO and school stuff should be coming home in flurries these next few weeks. If you don't regularly see the fliers your child is supposed to bring home, make sure you poke around their backpack for more information on events such as:

• CARNIVAL is on Friday May 15th, less than 2 weeks away!
  
• Prepackaged School Supplies will be on sale very soon
  
• THE GRAMMYS are going to Hawaii! Tryouts are on May 12th.
  
• Kindergarten Registration started on Friday and the Kinder Round-Up is on the 19th.

McDonald's Night is tomorrow! Remember 15% of your purchase goes to PTO. Thanks!
