Our Clubs and activities are abundant and the CTE and STEM classes are really fun. We have a lot of sports but all put our XC, Volleyball, and Baseball team suck.

It's small and there isn't a lot of class options, but it has a great social environment. And the athletic programs are really good.

What I liked about Burroughs High School is that it was not a very large high school and has about 1000 kids attending. Our town is small so everybody comes togther to constanly support the high school and high school sports.

Burroughs is definitely lacking compared to other schools. Having moved from Indiana, my son was in the middle of his junior year where he was in the college prep curriculum. At Burroughs, he was relearning things he had learned at the junior high level. After 2 months, I pulled him out and transfer...
