Save the Date! 🗓️ Join us for a fun and informative evening at the last Family University of the year, January 29th at Cummings High School! 🌟 A light dinner will be provided at no cost to families before you choose from many useful sessions on topics like registering for high school courses, career and technical education opportunities, and elementary reading and math strategies. Several sessions will also be available in Spanish (Algunas sesiones también estarán disponibles en español.) Childcare will be available for children from Pre-K to 5th grade, so the whole family can participate. The Family University is a great chance to get helpful information while connecting with other families and teachers. We hope to see you there - don't miss this valuable opportunity to support your student's growth and education!

All aboard! 🚂🎅❄️ Hillcrest Elementary was transformed into a wintry wonderland this week as students took a magical round trip to the North Pole via The Polar Express. After getting their golden ticket stamped, they boarded the "train" in the gym and listened as Media Specialist Ms. Mann read the classic story while enjoying hot cocoa and cookies. 🍪🥤The hardworking staff went above and beyond to create decorations that really enhanced the experience. This will be a day the students won't forget!
Ms. Cheek's 4th-grade Class wrote letters to Santa. We want to thank the Burlington Police Department for mailing them to the North Pole. Each of her 22 students received individual responses. Here are a few the responses!
