As parents, you play a key role in helping your child succeed in school. Curriculum Night is an important opportunity to learn about Burley's instructional program and the expectations and goals in each grade. 
 
Join us in the gym at 5:30 for the opening presentation from administration and the specials teachers (technology, art, physical education, and STEAM). Afterwards, there will be 2 sessions of classroom presentations where you can meet the teacher and learn about the curriculum and expectations for the year.

Please keep in mind:
- This event is for parents - children need not attend.
- Parking is in the neighborhood only. Do not park in the corner Ashland/Barry lot.

We look forward to seeing you at Curriculum Night!

Curriculum Night Schedule

5:30-6:00pm
Specials Teachers, Diverse Learners, Explore the Building
Feel free to explore the building or visit our Specials classrooms (STEAM, Art, Physical Education and Technology) and the Diverse Learners classrooms. These classrooms will be open and the teachers will be available to talk with you about their curriculum and goals for the year. Say hello to Ms. Plocher, Ms. Nash and Mr. Urbina who will be around the building throughout the evening. Diverse Learners and Specials classrooms will remain open for all three sessions. 

6:00-6:30pm
Pre-K through 8th Grade Homeroom Presentations
Pre-K through 8th grade homerooms will open starting at 6:00pm. Visit your child's classroom, meet their teachers and attend a presentation on what your child will be learning this school year and how you can support your students at home. There will be a limited time at the end of the half hour session for a short question and answer session.

6:30-7:00pm
Repeated Pre-K through 8th Grade Homeroom Presentations
Teachers will be repeating their previous presentation for parents who have more than one child at Burley. If you wish, consider visiting another Specials or Diverse Learner teacher.

Please remember - children are encouraged not to attend Curriculum Night. This event is designed for parents only.

Due to repairs to our school building, we will not have Early Bird Day on August 30 as originally scheduled. Please send school supplies with your child during the first week of school. Feel free to send them over the course of several days if carrying supplies independently will be difficult for your child. You need not assist your children in carrying all supplies to school the first day.

We are offering two alternate times for completing school forms and paying fees:

• Thursday, September 6 from 4:00-7:00 p.m. in the lunchroom (the same evening as the Ice Cream Social, which will be on the playground from 6:00-7:00 p.m.)
• Saturday, September 8 from 10:00-2:00 p.m. in the lunchroom 

All families must submit:

• Family & Emergency Contact Form (online)
• The CPS Media Release form (print and sign, or sign at Early Bird) 
• The CPS Family Income form (print and sign, or sign at Early Bird. CPS requires all families to complete this form, including those not applying for assistance.)

Please visit the school calendar for other important dates, and keep an eye on your email for ongoing parent updates as we prepare for another wonderful year of learning and friendship. As always, we are grateful for the support, flexibility, and understanding of our families.

To help your child have a great start to the school year, please bring his or her supplies on Early Bird Day, Thursday, August 31 from 8:30-6:00. If you can't come to Early Bird Day, your child can bring supplies on the first day of school. More information about Early Bird Day is coming soon! Print and download important back-to-school documents in advance if you wish.
