💥 8 Years Strong! 💥
Burton Elementary has once again been named a Capturing Kids’ Hearts® National Showcase School — for the eighth consecutive year! 🏆✨
This incredible streak recognizes Burton’s unwavering commitment to building a school culture where students feel safe, connected, and supported — every single day.
By consistently using Capturing Kids’ Hearts® strategies, our educators have created a space where relationships come first and students thrive both emotionally and academically. From warm greetings at the door to fostering mutual respect through social contracts, it’s all about making sure every student feels seen, heard, and valued.
👏 Congratulations to our Burton teachers, staff, families, and students. You continue to lead the way in building strong connections and brighter futures. #BurtonPride #8YearsStrong #CapturingKidsHearts
