From Mayor Lori Kemp:
Today ranked at the top of my mayoral moments thus far. I had the privilege of spending my morning with the amazing kids who represent the S2S (student to student) Program at BISD, and signed a Proclamation declaring April the “Month of the Military Child” in City of Burkburnett, TX. Our chamber at city hall was filled with laughter and excitement from kids from all BISD campuses, their Principles & Vice Principals, administration, and even Dr. Brad Owen and Dr. Audrey Ash.
The kids and I went live, took selfies, and, a few even took over the Mayor chair and hit the gavel! I love seeing our cities youth engaging in such a meaningful program. A program with the sole purpose of making new kids feel welcome in our community and making their transition into our schools as smooth as possible.
I welcome, and cherish, every opportunity to involve and engage our youth in city government in hopes it will one day inspire them to step into leadership positions in our community and contribute their greatness to the future of our city!
Thank you to Burkburnett ISD for such a wonderful morning, to all the kids who attended, who I hope will share their selfies, to News Channel 6 KAUZ for being there to cover the event, and to our City Clerk Margie Poole for being there on a city holiday to make all of this possible.
Happy Assistant Principal's Week to our favorite, Mrs. Kristen Taylor! She goes out of her way to serve our students, families, and staff of IC Evans on a daily basis. We appreciate her for all she does for the students and staff of Evans Elementary! ❤️
Today is Paraprofessional Appreciation Day! We couldn't do what we do without the love and support of these incredible staff members. They go above and beyond to support our students and staff each day! ❤️
Happy National School Librarian's Day to our favorite librarian, Tina Saravane! She makes the library the place kids are excited to be! We love her excitement for teaching reading and her love for kids!
During this legislative session, our legislators have an unprecedented amount of additional funding to allocate. As with all businesses, the cost of doing business as a school district has skyrocketed. We need our legislators to make a statement of support this session for the 5.5 million students we educate in Texas schools, and for the over 400,000 school system employees! Increase the basic allotment and fund pay increases.
I. C. Evans 2nd graders have been learning about Amelia Earhart. So today for STEM club, they created their own airplane. The airplane that went the furthest went 18 feet!
No school April 10, 2023. This is a teacher work day. Enjoy your long weekend!
