What a weekend for Burney wrestling!
On Saturday, we hosted around 250 wrestlers, ages 3 to 14, with teams traveling from Oregon and kids competing from across California. Matches ran from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., and while it was a fast learning curve running a tournament of this size, Burney truly stepped up.
All 20 of our Burney wrestlers, ages 7 to 13, placed between 1st and 5th. We are incredibly proud of their hard work and determination on the mat.
Thank you to everyone who helped make this opportunity possible for our community. What an amazing day for Burney wrestling! 💚💛🤼♂️

Congratulations to Robbie Madden for winning at the zone level of the Lions Club Speech contest! He will compete next in Yreka at the Region contest.
Huge thank you to everyone who came out and supported our Raiders at the Boosters Crab Feed on Saturday. It was a great night and a big success because of this amazing community.

Please join us in welcoming the newest furry Raiders to the family at Burney Jr. Sr. High School 💚💛
Resident goats Flopsy and Fern each gave birth this week, bringing six babies into the world. While one of Flopsy’s kids sadly did not make it, the others are healthy and doing well. Farm life brings both joy and heartbreak, and our students experienced both in a very real way.
A special Raider shoutout goes to Macie O’Neill, who assisted Flopsy during a midnight labor alongside BHS volunteer Jane. Macie stepped in with calm and confidence. We truly believe Macie is a future veterinarian in the making, her dream since she was four years old.
The very next day, out in the rain, Wyatt Howard and Macie assisted Fern as she delivered her babies. Both students are part of our Agriscience class led by Mrs. Rose, and they did an amazing job stepping up while their teacher was out of town.
This is hands on learning at its best. Responsibility. Teamwork. Grit. Care for living things. We are so proud of these Raiders for showing up when it mattered most.
Welcome to the world, little Raiders 🐐

Robbie Madden, Destiny Newman, and Josey Peckham spoke last week at the club level of the 89th Annual Lions Student Speaker Contest on the topic “Youth Mental Health: Overcoming Barriers to Well-being.” It takes courage to stand up and speak on something so personal and important, and they represented our school with thoughtfulness and heart.
