December 2024 Newsletter

Happy New Year! As we reflect on the close of 2024, we hope it was a season rich with the company of family and friends—an opportunity to focus on what truly matters, creating lasting memories with those we hold dear. In the whirlwind of our daily lives, it’s easy to forget to carve out moments for ourselves and our loved ones, often thinking that tomorrow will offer more time. This year, our school community has faced some hard truths, reminding us all that tomorrow is never promised. As we step into the new year, we encourage you to make resolutions that prioritize living in the present, cherishing your own well-being, and nurturing the relationships that mean the most. May 2025 be a year of mindful living, where time spent with loved ones takes precedence, and we remember to value each moment.

Mark your calendars as booked for December 17th (snow date of the 18th) for the Burkevale Christmas concert. Despite a library still being on the stage, a student population that is beyond the capacity of our gymnasium (let alone when parents and/or grandparents join in the festivities), we are forging ahead, once again with our Christmas concert

Sports and extracurricular activities are continuing in the upcoming school year. Cross country running will be the first sporting event to begin. Information for interested students will come out by the end of week one.
