A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL

Welcome to North Hill Elementary School! I am excited to be your principal for the 2024-2025 school year. My goal this year is to develop a culture of families and staff working together to encourage and challenge students to do their best work and be their best selves.
As we enter the new school year, my door is always open for your ideas, concerns, and feedback. I look forward to meeting each of you personally in the coming days and weeks. Together, we will make this a great year!
Warm regards,
Shawn Stringer

Mission

Inspiring and challenging students through diverse opportunities.

Vision

The Burlington Community School District strives to have a profoundly positive impact on each student’s adult quality of life brought about by the students’ individual and collective educational experience.

Exit Outcomes

The Burlington Community School District supports all students achieving skills and abilities to become productive citizens in the community in which they live. This includes academic goals, social competencies, employability skills, and technology skills. These skills are a guide for teachers and students in determining projects and areas of focus at various grade levels.
