    Dear Burger Families and Friends:

    It's hard to believe that May is here and the school year is quickly coming to an end. The next few weeks will be filled with activity: spring sports will conclude, NYS assessments will wrap up, and the Regents Exams will follow. We’ll also be saying goodbye to our 9th graders before summer break. Let's make the most of this time and finish strong!

    We are looking forward to the trip to Washington D.C. on May 21-23. This trip promises to be an unforgettable experience as students explore iconic American landmarks with friends.

    On Monday, June 2, we will honor our Academic Champions. Students who achieve high honor roll status for two out of the first three quarters of the 2024-2025 academic year will receive a special invitation by mail. This tradition at Burger is a wonderful opportunity to acknowledge our students' hard work and dedication.

    Here are some upcoming events for our students and families at Burger JHS in May and June:

    • May 5 - Grade 7 Ensembles, Jazz Band Spring Concert, 7 p.m.

    • May 12 - Grade 8 Chorus, Grade 8/9 Band, Voce Vita Spring Concert, 7 p.m.

    • May 16 - Spring Celebration sponsored by Student Council

    • May 19 - Grade 8/9 Orchestra and Grade 9 Chorus, Chamber Orchestra Spring Concert, 7 p.m.

    • June 2-6 - Spirit Week (Daily themes to be determined)

    • June 2 - Academic Champions Ceremony, 7 p.m.

    • June 6 - Student-Staff Kickball Game, 6 p.m. (Rain date: June 13)

    • June 16 - National Junior Honor Society Induction, 7 p.m.

    As we approach June, please check for the end-of-year schedule in my weekly E-News. Important information will be provided, especially for our 8th and 9th graders, who will attend by exam only starting June 17. Our 7th graders will attend half days from June 17-25.

    Thank you for your support this year. We hope our students will cherish the memories created and enjoy all that summer offers.
