Curriculum Night: Thursday, September 8th, 5:30pm-7:00pm
This is an important opportunity to learn about Burley's instructional program and the expectations and goals of each grade.
Join us in the gym at 5:30pm on Thursday, September 8th for the opening presentation from administration and the Specials Teachers that all children attend (technology, art, physical education and STEAM). Afterwards, visit your child(ren)'s classrooms, meet their teachers, hear about what they will be learning about in the classroom and learn how you can support your children at home. You may also visit their Diverse Learners teachers and special subject classrooms such as technology, art, physical education, and STEAM Lab. You can also visit support teachers such as our reading specialists and interventionists.

6:00pm-6:25pm Session 1: K through 8th grade classrooms, Diverse Learner Teachers and Interventionists will open starting at 6:00pm.

Please Use Corner Crosswalk when Crossing Barry at Dismissal
For the safety of the entire community and to prevent unintended accidents we ask that all students, families, sitters and adults cross the street using the corner crosswalks. We are no longer able to close down Barry Street during high traffic times making crossing Barry Street with additional traffic and cars challenging. With limited visibility due to the business of dismissal and parked cars, it is very difficult for passing cars to see students and families when crossing in the middle of the block. Crossing at the corner only takes an additional minute or two and models safe pedestrian behavior for children who will one day be navigating streets on their own. Thank you!
Beginning of Year Forms and Fees
Earlier this year a detailed email was sent about our beginning of the year forms, fees and documents. View email here. Please complete ALL 4 steps. You can pay your school fee in cash at school with Ms. Aviles or electronically through Epay here. Questions or need assistance? Reach out to Ms. Aviles at aaviles34@cps.edu.
Security desk volunteers needed
As a Security Desk parent volunteer, you'll sit at the front of the entry desk during the school student lunch periods and help supervise the door and sign in visitors to the building. Occasionally, you will hand out a bandaid. This allows the security guard to supervise lunch and recess. To be a regular helper or get on the list for subbing, please contact Ms. Plocher ceplocher@cps.edu.
