Dear Bobcat Families, 
Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! I’m Kristen, and I’m thrilled to serve as your PTA President this year. My husband, Kyle, and I are excited to be starting our sixth year at Burton Valley Elementary, now with our fifth grader, Max, our kindergartener, Beck, and our Bobcat-to-be, Ava (who's eagerly awaiting her turn!). We feel incredibly grateful to be part of such a wonderful community and even luckier that our children get to attend this amazing school.
This year, our amazing PTA Board, alongside our dedicated team of volunteers, has been busy planning an incredible year ahead. We’re committed to continuing the tradition of fostering an inclusive, welcoming, and supportive environment for all our students and families.
If you haven’t had a chance yet, be sure to explore our PTA website and download our exclusive app. It’s your one-stop shop for the Student Directory, Hot Lunch Menu, Events Calendar, Volunteer Opportunities, and much more. We’ll also keep you updated with the latest school news and important announcements every week!
We’d love for you to join the PTA! We are a vibrant group of parents, guardians, and teachers who work together to support our students. From organizing events to providing support where needed, we strive to make Burton Valley a place where every student can thrive.
