Good evening Burtonsville Families. This is your Assistant Principal, Mrs. Gobourne, with the Sunday Night Screamer!
We have some great news! This summer, Burtonsville ES will hold a FREE, In-Person Summer School Program! The program will run daily July 6th-30th, from 9:30 AM-2:00 PM, which will include an opportunity for students to be served lunch.
Burtonsville Elementary's In-Person Summer School Program will include literacy, mathematics, and a rotation of special classes: Physical Education, Music, Art, and Media. In addition, there will be transportation service provided for students.
