Caring For Our School 2025-2026 (https://tinyurl.com/Caring-For-Our-School-25-26)

Future Foward - Spartan Center (https://tinyurl.com/4k3u5td8) The Burlington School is an independent, nonsectarian, coeducational school which seeks to maintain a relaxed small school atmosphere in which each student can develop individually

in an academically challenging, safe and secure learning environment. Recognizing that education is a lifelong process involving the total person, we believe that our duty is to help prepare each student to become an independent, creative and critical thinker by providing a variety of experiences for achieving success. To this end our students pursue opportunities in the arts, athletics, community service and leadership within a traditionally structured academic environment. We invite you to consider The Burlington School experience for your child. While cost may present an issue, we encourage you to explore our programs to determine if they are the best option for your family. If so, we will work with you through financial aid and/or scholarships to help make it a reality.

Middle School May Term was full of hands-on learning, local exploration, and plenty of Spartan adventure! Students spent the week discovering more about the community around them, from learning how local government works at City Hall to visiting the police station, fire station, Burlington Arboretum, and Burlington Airport, where they learned more about planes and aviation.

They also made time for fun and adventure with skating at Roll-A-Bout, kayaking at Lake Mackintosh, and a train ride to Raleigh to explore the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences. It was a great week of learning beyond the classroom, trying new things, and making memories together.

Our New Orleans May Term trip has already packed in unforgettable experiences and a true taste of the city’s culture.

From music and history to food and adventure, New Orleans has been an incredible classroom so far.

Our Key West trip kicked off the morning with an unforgettable kayaking adventure through the mangroves with Lazy Dog Adventures. Students paddled through tight mangrove tunnels, spotted sea turtles, tarpon, and nurse sharks up close, and even had the chance to hold jellyfish and crabs along the way. It was an exciting hands-on experience exploring the unique ecosystem and wildlife of the Florida Keys.
