Joe Burvan plaque

Near the north entrance to the high school is a tree with a dedication plaque.

The plaque reads:
Dedicated to the memory of Coach Joe Burvan from the 1977-78 undefeated football team, coaching staff, and family.

  1. Thank you for the wonderful picture of the tree planted in Joe's memory. I was there the day it was dedicated and am happy to see that it has grown into a strong and healthy piece of nature. Hopefully, it will continue to grow and flourish just as the students that walk by it every day. Judy Burvan

  3. I was a member of the '77-'78 Undefeated football team that helped organize this plaque in honor of beloved coach Burvan. Coach Tom Ryan suggested that we plant a tree along the path that Coach always walked on his way to work each day as a PE teacher. He would park his VW bug as close as possible and would stroll along this path. He was great. Still miss him. Ned Tonner
