Burbank is a sweet little neighborhood elementary school with talented teachers and a dedicated, impactful principal. My child’s educational development continues to improve year over year. This year they are building a new playground that looks awesome! Almost 100% of the teachers are certified and have over 3 years of experience. The pretty average rating the school receives year over year is reflective of the amount of students learning English and the fact that many of them are from low income, sometimes English learning families without all the resources that children in higher achieving schools have access to, and the extra hurdles those children have to overcome in order to succeed will inevitably be visible in standardized testing. It is not a reflection of the education and resources available at the school.

My personal experience has been outstanding with the teachers and staff. I am so thankful to the talented teachers for the solid educational foundation they have helped my children build. I am forever grateful.

My concern starts at the top. When i explained to principle Davis tht her not allowing my child to finish off the school year would b traumatic to my daughter <were in april> her response was "thts not my problem" yes my daughter has tardies due to my lack of timeliness but to punish a child for tht and b uncaring shows a huge lack of concern for what matters most in an elementary school principle. She didnt ask how can i help her get to school on time? What do you need to make timeliness important in your household? She jus does not care. Period.
