Tomorrow from 11:30 - 12:30, students in grades 2 through 5 will be gathered to watch the historic inauguration of Barack Obama as the 44th president of the United States!   

 

A Winter Concert for Burr parents and families will be held this Wednesday, Jan 21 at 7:00 in the  Cafetorium.  Performing are the Grade 4 chorus, Burr School Band, beginning instrumentalists, and the "Lunch Bunch".

Children who are part of the concert should arrive at 6:45pm in concert attire (white top, black pants or skirt, nice shoes). Musicians need to bring their instruments and music. Clarinetists bring extra reeds! Brass players remember valve oil and slide grease!  The concert should last approximately 45 minutes.

 

*** Please park in the teacher parking lot -- and be kind to our Pine Street neighbors: do not block driveways or park illegally. ***

(Note: The RHD Committee alternates meeting times between afternoons and evenings to accommodate as many schedules as possible.)

The Burr Respect for Human Differences (RHD) Committee is a group of parents and teachers who work on our school community's growth toward respect for human differences, one of the core values of our Newton Public Schools.  Current projects include anti-bullying initiatives, an adult book group, and our annual celebration of World Cultures.
