A Message from the Principal

Welcome to Annie Burnside Elementary....Home of the BEES, where we Believe, Encourage, Engage, and Support every student, everyday!  We have an exceptional teaching and support staff that works tirelessly for the benefit of our children each day.

We are committed to providing a safe, positive, and supportive learning environment that ensures the academic success of ALL students. It is our intention for each one of our students to leave Burnside Elementary equipped with critical thinking skills and a love of learning.

Our theme this year is "Our Leadership Is Out Of This World!  Our goal is to continue to build a community of learners and leaders through the use of the Seven Habits +1 of Highly Effective People and our AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) implementation.

We invite you to visit our school and experience how we are making a positive difference in the lives of our children.
