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.

Burris is not a very big school so most likely, everyone knows each other. That is what I like about Burris. I do not really like the new IMPACT program they started for middle schoolers. Now at Burris, middle schoolers work on projects and do not have grades.

The teachers are very good at their jobs, but administration doesn't take a lot of things as seriously as they should.
4.0 Junior
