Dear Internet Visitor, Burbank High School is a comprehensive high school serving more than 2000 students, and we provide a high quality academic, co-curricular, and extra-curricular experience for all of our students. We offer a wide range of academic courses that include honors and advanced placement. Portions of our four main school buildings were constructed in 1921 and include a library, and auditorium, and two gymnasiums and locker rooms. Much of the school is being rebuilt in the next five years as a result of a recent bond election. The school's 18 acre site includes a large football field, a baseball stadium, basketball courts, and tennis courts. Located at the top of Burbank Boulevard overlooking the city, Burbank High School is centrally located near the Burbank Village and Media City Center. Our school has a strong Parent, Teacher and Student Association (PTSA), as many parents frequently volunteer to help in our various co-curricular and extra-curricular activities. Our school colors are blue and white, and our motto is "PRIDE." Students are well-behaved and demonstrate respect for teachers and each other as they participate in a wide variety of programs including athletic teams, vocal music, instrumental music, drama, drill team, cheerleading, and ASB. Our students take pride in their commitment to helping others less fortunate than themselves by raising food and funds for Burbank Temporary Aid, or volunteering their time on a community project. Student attendance is high, and promptness is required and enforced. The dress code is strictly enforced, as is the school discipline policy. We welcome your involvement and participation in this excellent opportunity for learning and growth in a positive, professional, healthy and challenging atmosphere. You are invited to contact us for a school tour, or for additional information regarding our programs. |
