GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The orchestra instructor is the best in the county and awesome. Poor leadership at Burns is where the failure starts and shows in faculty. Lots of fights at this school every week. Our student asked the 7th grade math teacher (probably been teaching for 30 years) for assistance on some math work and her response was "read your notes".
