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.

My experience with Burbank could be considered controversial because of how I feel about it .I've had some of my best memories here from joining sports medicine to meeting people who will forever be connected to me ,along with that does come with some downs even though I've had great times here I've also had my worse from teachers who couldn't care less about our education to coach's who bring us down any chance we get .If I could change anything about this I would want to change the administration , I would like teachers who would be there for me and actually help me and not pray on my downfall because of one mistake.I would want them to believe and encourage me , most of all I would just want them to actually be there for me.That's what I would change if I could .

Burbank was a good school for my daughter, who graduated this past year. I feel my daughter received a good education, and more importantly she had excellent teachers that taught her to believe on herself and her dreams. She is now attending college and doing great on her first semester..
