The Community Fundraiser Competition united students and staff in support of The City Hope Foundation. Donation boxes were placed in classrooms, and iJAG students collected and counted items each week as classes competed to contribute the most. By the end of the drive, nearly 500 products had been donated. The winning class received donuts and juice, but the greatest success was the collective impact made in the community. The generosity shown throughout the event demonstrated a strong commitment to service and giving back.

West Burlington Schools is excited to celebrate National School Breakfast Week from March 2–6, 2026 with this year’s theme: “The Quest for School Breakfast.”

Busy mornings can make it hard to find time for a healthy start, but our schools offer nutritious breakfasts each day — complete with fruit and low-fat or fat-free milk — to help students power up for learning.

National School Breakfast Week, launched in 1989, highlights the importance of the School Breakfast Program and the positive impact it has on student success.

We look forward to celebrating and encouraging all students to join us for a healthy start to their day!

Students in our iJAG (Iowa Jobs for America’s Graduates) program recently visited the Burlington Fire Station to explore careers in emergency services. During the tour, firefighters shared what it truly takes to enter the field — including the importance of starting training and preparation early. Experiences like this help students move beyond “just an idea” of a future career and see firsthand what different paths require, potentially saving time and money as they plan for life after high school.
