Burns Middle School

Okay school. I've only gone for a year and I don't like it. Rude people. We had 7th graders drinking in the car pool. Trust me, you won't like it in the long run. Not all teachers are the best, but there are some really good ones.

One of the Best Middle Schools in the country! High School level Academics, Caring Teachers and Staff, Outstanding Music Dept. especially the Orchestra.

Excellent middle school! I moved into the area to get my son away from McClane Middle School. I was partially nervous that all middle schools were the same, but Burns was great! Every teacher my son had has been very caring, they actually care about the students, not just their paycheck. My only warning would be about the PE department. If you have a child with any condition that can cut into PE time, there are a couple of PE teachers who will give your child a hard time. Be prepared to get involved and do NOT let him intimidate you.

Amazing leadership from Brenda Nolte. Music program one of the best in America for middle school kids in a neighborhood school. The music teachers are heroes. My kids are about to graduate high school and their success began at Burn's. Superior academics with strong, traditional teaching in all subjects.

I have two daughters attending this school and it's wonderful. So many children, especially pre-teens and teens are not taught to be respectful anymore. I appreciate the discipline that the principal and her staff enforce on the kids in this school. I expect the best from my girls because I know their potential and this school does as well. As a result, I have two straight students in gifted classes. Obviously something is paying off. It's been an 'A' rated school for the last 7 yrs and they definitely deserve it!!! If you have the opportunity to put your child in this school, jump on it!!

This school is one that others should strive to be. Mrs. Nolte(principal)is wonderful with very high expectations and strict discipline which is needed at this age. Mrs. Nolte really cares and shows up for all after-school activities whether it be sports or music. The teachers are very caring and communicate well with the parents via an online website with grades. As with every school I have encountered the parent involvement could be better. I picked my home for the 'A' rated schools and I am not sorry. I love Burns and my daughter does also. They have great music programs, sports and clubs.
