Game On!
Dear Junior Raider Families,
I am so incredibly proud to be part of this amazing community! Our first day is Monday, August 18th - Game On!
As we start our new school year, our focus will be to ensure that:
· every child, every day is connected,
· every child, every day is being challenged by new learnings and experiences,
· and every child, every day knows they have a champion they can turn to.
Our amazing Junior Raider staff has been working tirelessly to prepare to welcome back our Junior Raiders.
BES is truly a special place. As we begin our launch of our new school year, we ask that you continue to stay involved by bringing positivity, energy and creativity to our school as we continue to strengthen our programs. Our stakeholders are our greatest strength and greatest resource. Together, we can drive BES and our mission even further. To those of you who are new to BES, the entire school welcomes you to a very special community. Our school is a place where children come to learn and a place they feel special.
Burney Elementary wants to push the boundaries of TK - 6th Grade education by harnessing the power of high impact actions and strategies to advance learning and teaching. Your Jr. Raiders will be expected to engage in reading, writing, discussing, critical thinking, problem solving and hands-on learning. The vast majority of learning occurs in the classroom with the teacher and classmates. Students will collaborate, communicate, think, experiment, and reflect throughout each day. Our commitment to hands-on, tactile, kinesthetic future based learning develops students’ critical thinking, problem solving, motivation, communication and cooperation.
Within the next few weeks, you will receive detailed information regarding safety and procedures for the start of school. We hope to see all of you at our, "Game On - Back to School Celebration" event on Thursday, August 14th at from 5:00-5:30PM. Your Jr. Raiders can see their friends, see our Raider mascot, and find out their class assignment!
We will create, celebrate and innovate because our children deserve the very best.
There are no limits on learning at Burney Elementary.
Please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best,
Principal Aderman
