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.

I recommend Burbank Middle School because the teachers for every grade level have different types of teaching skills which is great for us students because knowing different skills on one subject or certain subjects we are much more educated and by the time we get to high school us students will have the knowledge and would know how to do the basic's of the subjects so the teachers won't have to start all over with the basic topics because then it will leave us students way behind and that can lead us to failing a class or starting that same year all over again.

I am currently attending this campus and am completely dissatisfied. The students are wild and the teachers are incomprehensive with the exception of a few others.
