Dear Parents,
Burnt Mills Elementary School is scheduled for modernization from January 2022 to August 2023. During that time, the school will be housed at the Fairland Center. Fairland Center is one of the older school buildings in Montgomery County and space for onsite vehicular activity is very limited. As safety is our priority, we would like to ask those of you that normally elect to drive your children to and from school consider allowing them to ride the buses. School buses are the safest form of transportation on the roads and we are committed to living up to that expectation.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation. We look forward to transporting your children and wish them a safe and successful experience while at Fairland Center. We also hope you will be pleased with your brand-new Burnt Mills Elementary School when it reopens on August 2023. If you have questions, please email me at Sinisha_Pavlovich@mcpsmd.org
Sincerely,
Sinisha Pavlovich
Transportation Depot Manager

La Escuela Primaria Burnt Mills está programada para su modernización (construcción) desde enero del 2022 hasta agosto del 2023. Durante ese tiempo, la escuela se ubicará en Fairland Center (13313 Old Columbia Pike, Silver Spring, MD 20904).
Fairland Center es uno de los edificios escolares más antiguos del Condado de Montgomery y el espacio para la actividad vehicular en ese lugar es muy limitado. Como la seguridad de nuestros estudiantes es nuestra prioridad, nos gustaría pedirles a ustedes que normalmente deciden llevar a sus hijos a la escuela en carro, por favor, consideren permitirles viajar en los autobuses escolares.
Los autobuses escolares son la forma más segura de transporte en las carreteras y estamos comprometidos a proveer un servicio sumamente segura y confiable. Gracias de antemano por su cooperación. Esperamos proveerles transporte a sus hijos y les prometemos una experiencia segura mientras estén en Fairland Center. También esperamos que estén satisfechos con el nuevo edificio de la Escuela Burnt Mills cuando reabra en agosto de 2023.
Sinceramente,
Sinisha Pavlovich
Jefe de Transportacion de West Farm Depot
