Thank you to our Watch DOGS from this week!
#ShoutOuts! #celebRAYte
You never know what you will see in our schools. Today, at Overton Ray Elementary, I got to watch some eggs hatch and had 5th graders demonstrate some of their ecosystem presentations for me. I also got to see some amazing 4th graders practicing for their play tonight!!
We love to celebrate students!
It’s beginning to look a lot like the 4th grade Texas program… Show times are 6:00pm next Tuesday(4A) and Thursday (4B). It will be live streamed for those who can’t attend.
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.
We have a few changes to our STEM Club dates, please check below!
Student council had a guest speaker come and speak to them about the Meals on Wheels program. The students asked amazing questions in order to understand the program better. Thank you Mr. Richter!
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.
M&Ms candy and Math are winning combination in Mrs. White‘s 5th grade math class. #WalkInYourPurpose.
It’s Assistant Principal Appreciation Week and TIE Club spent some time creating a “THANK U” sign with their own designs and some thoughtful notes. We definitely appreciate what Mrs. Kendall does! #TheBulldogWay #WalkInYourPurpose

You can take the principal out of a teacher but you can’t take the teacher out of the principal. Check out Mr. Hunter teaching area in Mrs. Bice’s third grade math class.
Mrs. Trotta’s class earned their chip party! When they earn all the parts of Mr. Potato Head, they have earned their chip party. They earn parts by getting compliments and doing the right thing. #TrottaTribe #celebRAYte
