For all that you have endured and continue to endure, thank you.  Thank you for supporting your children, our students, and our school throughout these trying times.  Mother Teresa once said, “None of us, including me, can ever do great things. But we can all do small things, with great love, and together we can do something wonderful.” We are all doing great things together.

The 2023-2024 school year was certainly one for the history books. Finally, the School Board, Burkevale students, staff and the parent community received the long-awaited news of the approval of a new Burkevale School. Lord knows, we certainly need more space, and the excitement of creating a learning environment for every student to thrive individually and collectively is awe-inspiring. There is a portion of our new building that brings some sadness – 39 Burke Street has been Burkevale’s home for over a century! We shall grow and create new blossoms, but never forget our roots.

April 2024 Newsletter

Spring officially arrived on March 19th, and with the weather we experienced over March Break, it seemed as though spring was already here. When I think about spring, I think about fresh starts, and a new chapter. New buds will soon be appearing on trees, and spring flowers will be popping up in gardens everywhere. Spring is also a time for growth and learning. Students are regularly asked to take risks and learn from their mistakes. Maybe spring is a time for everyone to heed this advice. Go out and try something that fuels your passion!
