This year, the Burr and Burton Target Program celebrates 25 years of innovative, individualized education. Yet, the story started long before the program opened. Travel back in time to 1993--and even 1960--to learn how the threads of the Burr and Burton community have woven together through time to create and support this life-changing program.
