We’re excited to have Madi Felt join our Falcon Family as the new Secondary Special Education teacher!
We can’t wait for all the great things ahead in the 2026-2027 school year!
Falcon Nation, we've made it...the last week of school! And we're going to end the school year in style, by holding a pep rally at 12:15 Thursday afternoon for our State Track and Field athletes that are #BurkeBound! The public is welcome to attend as we send-off the track team to Omaha!
Our teachers took one for the team today with the cheer fundraiser — Tattoo a Teacher! 🎉😄
From silly designs to unexpected masterpieces, students had a blast choosing temporary tattoos for staff to wear throughout the day. Thank you to everyone who participated and helped support our cheer team! 💙📣
Who wore it best? 👀 #TattooATeacher #SchoolSpirit #CheerFundraiser #FunAtSchool
