The Burnet CISD Board of Trustees is seeking input via an online survey on the attributes and qualities that you would like to see in the next superintendent. This is in addition to planned in-person feedback sessions taking place the week of December 4. The 7 question survey is estimated to take less than 5 minutes to complete and all parents, staff, and community members are encouraged to complete the survey. Results will be used by the Board as they build a final profile of the characteristics they are seeking for a future leader.

All BCISD campuses will have a 3-hour early release on Thursday, December 21.

Our Weekly Campus Spotlight from last week is Bertram Elementary: The Book Vending Machine was donated by Atmos Energy and the Friends of the Bertram Library keep it stocked with great books. Students earn coins by showing the 7 Habits and the books are the student’s to keep forever. The Book Vending Machine was dedicated in August when Gus the Gopher, Atmos representatives and Burnet CISD staff officially cut the ribbon.

Board Members, Community members and BCISD Staff members gathered for the Bertram Elementary Ribbon Cutting on October 16, 2023 and were able to tour the halls and classrooms of the new addition.

The 2021 Bond included a new classroom wing and renovations to Bertram Elementary. The 2-story classroom wing was constructed to increase capacity to 700 students with additional classrooms.
