We are so grateful for our wonderful Burbank Community! Thanks to all of our parent volunteers, the Burbank PTA was able to put on many exciting events this year. We started the year with the Back to School Fall Social, enjoying cotton candy and whipped cream pie contests while dunking favorite teachers and even the principal in the dunk tank. This was followed by our beloved Burbank Lights the Way event in late October where families enjoyed painting pumpkins, decorating luminary bags, and settling in with pizza and popcorn for a showing of the Dogman movie. December brought our one-day Book Fair to the gymnasium for some last minute holiday finds. In February, our families came together at Multicultural Night to share food, crafts, and dances from their cultures. March brought the fun as students and families danced the night away with DJ Paul & DJ Carlo at our annual Family Dance. We also thanked last years' retirees with a special Library Night with our Beehive Book Quote Mural Dedication and enjoyed stories read by beloved educators. STEM Night was a success in April, allowing students to explore science and technology and try their hands on their own experiments. In May, the 29th Geography Challenge took place in the evening and challenged the students' mastery of curriculum-based geography knowledge. The month ended with a beautiful spring morning for an exciting Field Day for all students. In June, we celebrated our 3rd Graders' final year at Burbank with a relaxed BYO 3rd Grade Picnic and games on the Burbank front lawn.

The PTA couldn't have done all these amazing events without the help and support of our families - whether you donated your time, energy, money, or showed up to support, you made a difference for the students. Thank you!

In 2026-2027, we look forward to collaborating with families to bring back the following events (Dates TBD, Months Approximate):

• September: Fall Social

• October: Burbank Lights the Way

• Winter: Family Dance

• Spring: Multicultural Night/Geography Challenge

• May/June: 3rd Grade Picnic

We also are exploring an exciting new Fun Run Fundraiser Event for the fall, and we hope to enjoy another Library Night in the winter/spring. Email the Burbank PTA if you are interested in planning or volunteering at our events!
