Burns High School

I am an alumni, my daughters are also, as my grandchildren. They school works with the parents to keep education and extra-curricular intact inspite of the lack of money. Everyone takes pride and works together.

We don't get a lot of choices of classes, funding has been so poor lately that they couldnt assign books to us, so they were to stay in the class room so we can use them, teachers arent the best, I hate it here.

Students need a stable environment to learn...to succeed...to grow. This school district, does not provide that, and has constantly and consistantly struggled to bring forth any realm of 'stable' over the years. Funding is always being cut short, classes are always being cut, buildings are in awful shape, and they expect the students to just 'buck up' and move on. Its ridiculous and utterly insane. The students are being given the bottom of the barrell in this state, and yet everyone in this community is surprised that the students are reflecting upon this. One word - Denile!

My child is in first year and already I am extrememly worried about the education she is getting. Stress in and among students is extreme, these kids cannot even concentrate.

This school has teachers putting in minimal effort [excluding a few that are succeeding] and that's what the students are getting out of the school-a minimal education!
