The teachers and administrators at Burke High School are very caring and do their best to provide a good education. Burke really feels like home and I love the size. I know everyone at my school and I'm very grateful for the experience I had during my time there.

I really like the high school that I am at right now. I like that the teachers are very nice and willing to work with you if you are having trouble with an assignment or just have questions. One thing that makes this school unique is how it feels more like a home than a school. How everyone treats you makes you feel really good about yourself. I would not won't to go anywhere else to high school.
