Burbank High School

Gee, I swear they must film stuff at the front of the school. I am rating this place solely on the look of it from outside. This would be a good location to do any video film projects if you’re looking for a non ‘hood’ looking location. It is obviously located on the corner of two busy streets.

This is a great gym to play. Clean, easy to get to, and parking is convenient. The girls have a great time practicing and playing games here.

Love that this track is brightly lit! Arrived around 8pm and there were lots of people, happy to see women working out here too! The track and field were very well maintained. I believe the track itself is rubber so that was nice. Absolutely felt safe here which is a huge bonus.

I’m here today supporting Burbank High Schools dance team. These amazing students along their professional teacher have worked really hard and prepared a beautiful program. Great job!!!

This review is for the track only.
As a local, I have been using the track for several years, including triathlon training.
I feel incredibly safe at this track, and I only have gone at night, usually past 8 PM. Lots of families and children, but the track is spacious and clean and brightly lit.
It’s also nice and spongy, so it’s easy on the knees. Nice bathrooms, too, and water bubblers.
Love this track, fantastic resource for locals!

As a graduate of Burbank High, I can say that it’s not the best school education wise. If you’re an average student, you can easily pass. D work can easily pass off as a B. The one major focus this school has is safety & protection. The second a fight breaks out, security is quick to rush in and stop it. Also, truancy’s are intolerable. After about 5 — 10 truancy’s in a semester, you’ll be called into a counselors office for «disciplinary actions», you’ll also get a threat that they’ll send you over to Monterey for a quarter, which is absolute bs.
Onto the counselors. One particular counselor in particular, I forget her name, but she did a horrible job as my counselor. She would never help me, or even acknowledge the fact that i’m a student of hers, or any of her other students. Also, the second I try to get a second opinion from another counselor, it’s just the same old story. None of them know how to articulate their opinions properly, and honestly, they don’t know how to do their jobs.

This school needs to up its game, most teachers at this school have in attitude problems (mostly with the ones that be there the longest) they need to realize we are students and we are here to learn not to be forced to do «projects» that most of us can’t do. This school serves the most trashiest foods, I rather eat food made by the cooking class than the cafeteria. It’s kinda ridiculous how «stupid» supposed «cool gangsta’s» they call them selfs to «poop and or pee» all over the toilets including the walls and floor. I think this school should have a operating nurse when the nurse is out, as in says in the states requirements”.

So, 2014 has not been good to my overall physique. For some reason, eating lots and not excersising seems to be having this strange effect where I keep gaining weight! Well, I’ve vowed not to join 2/​3rds of the country in the obese lifesytle, thus I must get rid of this flab!
Burbank High has a wonderful track around their football field that they have open to the public. I tend to go in the evenings and have come to look forward to my time running in a gigantic circle over and over again. The track is well lit, has a parking structure to park your car, and even bathrooms open to whoever may need to use the facilities. There are a number of folks who come to the track for similar purposes and others who use the astro turf football field for soccer, football, or other atheletic training purposes. If it’s still light, there’s a nice view of the Verdugo mountains as you run the track and the whole area is fenced in from Glenoaks Blvd.
It can get pretty crowded depending on who is using the track. Sometimes community sports teams do training there and a lot of people walk the track and stay in the number one lane without having the courtesy to move into the second lane so runners don’t have to swerve around them, but for a free workout that has already helped me burn off some of the flab, I am so glad the city has allowed us to use their track. Hopefully Hoover High in Glendale will do the same!
What would be ideal, put up some bars and such that people could do pullups and other easy aerobics.

*This review is for the Track & Field area*
Only been here a couple times but the track is great to run at night. The track itself closes around 9 or 10PM. Plenty of lights to see good. Also has stairs that are great to use!
Can use the football field to train/​exercise but the ‘field keeper’ turns off the main lights and closes the field section usually closes around 7−8PM.

This review is based on the track and field which I go to on the weekends to workout. I for the most part go on Sunday mornings and it’s open and pretty empty! Around 10am it starts to get more people running and working out. During the summer it was also open all day. I think it’s great the school and city keep it open. It’s always clean and well maintained.

It looks great. I go on the Thursdays the food trucks are there — second Thursdays of the month save for Nov/​Dec? — to help support the teachers, students, education. There’s a band there as well. The food isn’t the healthiest, or the cheapest, but you know you’re paying it forward.

Not much to say here about high school except… man has the school changed!
I’m guessing the school is still as good as it was when I went, considering it’s still in Burbank: D

I must say I’m probably gonna be biased.
CLASS OF 2011!
It is a beautiful campus to spend four years in. however I wish there was more grass. This is a school where they try to provide everything you need in once place, they always try to accommodate you. From helpful staff, to awesome facilities. Their art program is amazing, which is what other schools take for granted. Sure, there is some generic high school tensions between students here and there, but that comes with any place. There are horrible teachers and amazing ones. Believe me a lot more good than bad. My only gripe is that the lunch food stinks, but you can definitely go out and eat, it’s in a perfect location for after school hangouts, and the environment feels like one big family.

Great track and field.
Astro turf field, just be careful because it will stain your clothes.
The running track is my favorite part of this place. Its numbered and marked so you can keep track of your times and improvements.

awesome school to graduate from.
they always go out of their way to provide the best for their students

Well, i graduated here, class of 08
its alright, the teachers are like most, some are good and some arent, the classes are pretty ok, they are an ok amount of students per class
the teachers do a good job as far as taking their time so everyone gets it and offer time after class if you dont, so they’re ok, although i always preferred the classes that did not involve writing essays because they were the most fun
The Auto teacher, Lopez, is cool, Ms. Shalhoub, the cooking teacher is amazing, the art classes are great, and so are the photo ones from what i hear
The teams are ok, they have more spirit then they should because they arent that fantastic, well, maybe just the football team haha
the campus is cool, they have a pool, two gyms, a track, but they do need a bit more bleachers so we can actually have home games and not have to go all the way to Burroughs
all in all, its a good school, as much as i hate to say it, it really is :)

I can’t believe BHS hasn’t been reviewed!
Good school, great teachers, shitty football team, good water polo team…
That’s all I got.
