We are incredibly excited to introduce The Belltower, a new quarterly newsletter for Burr and Burton alumni featuring updates from campus, and ways to stay connected to Bulldog alums.
Class notes and alumni updates, formerly available in News from the Hill, will now be printed in the summer and winter issues of The VIEW—watch your mail for the latest issue, or read The VIEW online.
If you don't receive your print copy, make sure to update your address here, and contact us at alumni@burrburt on.org with any questions!
A Creative Commencement: How We Celebrated the Class of 2020
Following the latest guidance from Governor Scott’s office, Burr and Burton Academy found new ways to honor the graduating class of 2020—from a firetruck parade through town and four days of individual diploma ceremonies to a drive-in Commencement celebration at Bromley.
Just hours before celebrating Burr and Burton Academy’s 187th Commencement on Friday, June 5, the school broke ground on Founders Hall, a visionary new academic building, funded by the late Barry and Wendy Rowland, that will transform Burr and Burton's historic campus and put millions of dollars into the local economy.
From Associate Head of School Meg Kenny: We are excited to welcome our students to the Burr and Burton campus at the end of August. The return to engaging and vigorous learning experiences on our campus is our number one priority and planning is underway to safely and effectively reopen for the 2020-2021 academic year.
Out of concern for our alumni and local communities, Burr and Burton has decided to postpone Reunion 2020, originally scheduled for September 25-27, 2020. Instead, we will celebrate the 2020 reunion classes next year at Reunion 2021. We look forward to seeing you all back in the shadow of Equinox!
