Hello Burt Bunch Families,
We had a great week! Thank you for all your support! Today we had a visit from our 3rd grade Book Buddies. Both classes did a wonderful job!
Next week:
- Please send in supplies for Tuesday’s Feast on Monday. (Goldfish and plates)
- Please send in Friendship Fruit Salad supplies by Wednesday.
- We got our library books on Wednesday (11/20). Please keep your child’s library books in their bookbags. The students like to look at them during the school day and this helps them from getting misplaced. I will let you know when they need to be returned. If your child does not return their books, they will not be able to get new books. The students were able to get two books. A few students choose to get only one book.
- On Monday we will meet with our 5th grade buddies.
- On Monday we will have a guidance lesson with Miss Evans.
- NO HOMEWORK NEXT WEEK! Early dismissal on Wednesday. Schools are closed Thursday and Friday.

Thank you for another great week! Halloween is approaching quickly. If you signed up to donate to the class party, please send the items in by Thursday morning. Earlier would be better. I am excited about celebrating in class with the children. I have lots of special events planned for the day.
I need some more snacks for snack time. Individual bags of pretzels, Goldfish, or Cheez-It crackers work best.
I wanted to remind you that I will be having a medical procedure on November 4 and will not be at school from November 4th- 15th. I plan to return on Monday, November 18th. Due to my procedure, you will not be getting updated for a few weeks. I am also not sending homework for those weeks.
If your child’s transportation changes during my time off, please write a note and send it to school with your child. I will have limited email access while I am healing, and the sub will not have any email access.
Make-up picture day will be November 13, 2024.
If you have any questions or problems while I am out, please don’t hesitate to call the office for assistance.
I thank you for your help and support while I am out.

Hello Burt Bunch Families,
Thank you to all those that came in to visit me today. Tomorrow morning, all first-grade students will be directed to the cafeteria to meet their teacher. I have updated our specials schedule. Please see the tabs to the left. I will send a copy home with students as well. We do not have our take-home folders yet. I will give them out as soon as they arrive. First grade lunch will start at 10:15. Since we will eat so early in the day, I have decided to add a short snack time to our daily schedule. Snack time will be at 1:20 each day. Please send in a simple dry snack for your child each day. (pretzels, goldfish, dry cereal are great items to send in.) I would greatly appreciate any donations of pretzels or goldfish for students that may forget a snack. NO PEANUT OR TREE NUTS ARE ALLOWED IN THE CLASSROOM. Don’t forget breakfast is available in the morning for all students from 8:45-9:05. I will use this web page and emails to communicate with parents throughout the year.
I look forward to tomorrow!

Hello Burt Bunch Families,
Welcome to our class! (Room D-1) I am looking forward to meeting all my new students and their families. Don't forget the First Grade Orientation is Wednesday, September 4 from 1-2 pm. Please see the schedule below for your child's session. I will use this web page for weekly updates all school year. Take a minute to view the tabs to the left for some helpful information. For the first day of school, please make sure you have your child's bus pass or a note about how they will get home from school in their backpack. Your child will also need to know his or her lunch pin. (This is their 5-digit student number.) Now would be a great time to practice. They will have to key the number in on a keypad, just like a phone keypad. A great idea is to have them practice on the phone. Muscle memory is a great thing. (I will provide them with a card that will have their number on it each day.)
I am looking forward to a great year! Have a wonderful Labor Day weekend!
Respectfully yours,
Mrs. Burt
