Dear Patrons, It’s hard to believe that August is already here and the end of the month brings the start of a new school year. This time of year is full of anticipation thinking of new teachers, classes, friends and all sorts of exciting opportunities. I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of staff and students as the district office has been a little quiet for my taste during the month of July. August brings additional planning and preparation for the upcoming school year, as staff is already hard at work preparing for what I know is going to be an amazing year for all of our Coyotes. The building offices open up again for business beginning Wednesday, August 15th. Staff will be back for two days of professional development August 27-28th. The school offices will be open during the two days of professional development, however staff will not be available due to their work across the district preparing for the new year.

Until then, enjoy the last few days of summer and know that we are anxiously awaiting the return of our students for another outstanding year. We thank you for your continued support of our district and for welcoming my family and I as we begin to be part of the Burbank community. Go Coyotes!

Important Notes...
Earlier this summer all children with life threatening conditions and/or children who require medication at school received a letter from the school nurse. State law requires guardians to meet with the school nurse to review these forms PRIOR to the student being allowed to attend school.
All parents are required to update their students information through the online Family Access link, which will open on August 17, 2018. Class schedules will be released after completion of the online registration
Elementary class rosters will be posted on the front door of the Elementary school August 16th.
The Elementary, Middle, and High school offices will open on August 15th. Office hours are 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
All students must have complete immunizations in order to start school. This includes the chicken pox vaccine. Parents must either provide verification from the doctor the child has chicken pox with the date of illness, a blood test showing serologic proof of immunity to varicella, or a signed Certificate of Exemption form for a medical, religious or personal/philosophical reason for not receiving the vaccination.
Student athletes must have an athletic physical completed before they are allowed to participate in any school sports.
