School day & Encore Period
In the 2013-14 school year, the school day will begin at 8:04 a.m. with a bell ringing at 8:00 a.m. to alert students that it is time to go to class. It is imperative that our students get to school on time. Students who are habitually tardy will be required to make up time after school. Parents, please help in encouraging your children to get to school on time. The school day will end at 3:21 p.m.
Burwell Jr. Sr. High School will continue to have an Encore Period that begins at 3:25 p.m. This is a 30-35 minute period at the end of the school day, where all teachers are available to give students extra help. No sports practices can take place during the Encore Period. If a student has a grade below a C or has an incomplete, they are required to attend the Encore Period. Failure to report to a required Encore Period will be an automatic detention. It is important that we encourage all students to take advantage of the Encore Period.
