School Improvement Council
Burgess Elementary has a school improvement council. It meets monthly to discuss ways to improve our learning program. All public schools must have a School Improvement Council, as required by the Massachusetts Education Reform Law of 1993. The school improvement council includes teachers, parents, school administrators, and members of the Sturbridge community. Yearly elections are held to fill the seats on this committee each year.
