Pearland ISD superintendent urges students to prepare for Aug. 13 start; says "Pack that patience"
Summary
Superintendent Mr. Burger delivered a brief message to Pearland ISD students urging them to get back into routines ahead of the first day of school on Aug. 13 and to engage in school life, advising students to "pack that patience."
In a brief message to Pearland ISD students, Superintendent Mr. Burger asked families to prepare for the district’s first day of school on Aug. 13 and urged students to return to school routines.
Mr. Burger said students should “start settling into going to bed a little bit early” and urged them to get both their “body and your mind ready for that first day of school.” He added, “Pack that patience,” and encouraged students to “make sure you ask questions. Don't let education happen to you.”
The superintendent recommended that students join extracurricular activities and find mentors to support learning and engagement. “Find a club. Find an activity. Find an organization. Find a friend. Find a mentor,” he said, adding that students should aim to “learn and grow and have fun.”
The message focused on personal preparation and engagement rather than on district policy or operational details. The transcript did not specify changes to schedules, classroom assignments, or district procedures.
“We are excited to welcome you back. It is my favorite day of the year, first day of school. Can't wait to see you,” Mr. Burger said in closing.
