The Burruss Weekly
A Note from Dr. Johnson
October 12, 2021
Hello, Burruss families!
Next week is Conference Week! Please make every effort to meet with your child's teacher. We believe that our village is strongest when we are all working together for student success.

The parade is on the square, starting at 5pm, ending at Northcutt Stadium. Fun games, food, and football following the parade!
Conference Week: October 18-22
We will dismiss each day of Conference Week at 1:15pm. Our goal is to meet with 100% of our families, either in person or via Zoom. More information will be coming from your child's teacher(s). Please arrange childcare. ASP will be available, but families must register in advance. There are fun enrichment camps each day for a small fee--check it out! https://www.smore.com/nbh67
