Burleson High School

BHS has really caring teachers, lots of activities for students to be involved in, very good administration and is a fantastic place to be now that it is no longer overcrowded. I am so pleased with the changes in this school over the last 2 years, I would recommend it to any family.

This waas a good school. I think that they have gone a little over board with lunches now. They now have glass doors that go around the lunch room to prevent kids from going off campus and or skipping class to go vist friends at lunch. I personally think its a bit extreme but other than that I enjoyed my four years there.

I had a very positive experience at Burleson HS The teachers were knowledgeable, as well as skilled imparters of that knowledge . Parents were encouraged to be involved and were kept informed of the progress of their children. I felt safe and proud to be at Burleson HS and cherish only good memories of my high school experience.

Coming from a rural school to Burleson... I'm extremely satisfied with the school, and school district. So many extra curricular activities.

Our experience with Burleson High School was terrible. I cant remember one positive outcome. My children werent ecouraged in anyway to attend college even though one had been in the gifted program all through school. Whenever I tried to speak with anyone about problems we were having we were dismissed by the administrators and teachers. I tried to speak with counselors and they were useless. I am very disappointed in the experience we had there. Fortunately my children have done fine after school, but it wasnt due to help we received from the school. They were more of a hindrance than a help.

My daughter thoroughly enjoyed BHS and her grades - which had been b's and c's at north crowley high school became a's. The kids were all generally very good kids - the drama was so much less. I wish we had moved to Burleson sooner.

This school is absalutly terrible. The teachers and office staff do not care about the students. They give very harsh punishments for very little things not caring how the punishment may affect a students life. the classes are all packed full and esspecialy the hallways. this is a terrible school, i recommend you don't even give this place a shot.

Several individuals have hit the nail on the head. This schools administration is very top heavy and in goose step with the good old boy system. Due process for the protection of the student is non existent except on paper. The athletic director (see comment above). Academically, if you as a student are disciplined you can get a good education. Get out while you can.

This school may offer AP classes and many sports, but the teachers and especially the teachers do not care about the students. Standardized tests are the primary concern for administrators, not student happiness.
