Burlingame High School Reviews
Rating 3.85 out of 5 252 reviews
Loved BHS for the academics but not much for the people, many think they are entitled because of the neighborhood they come from. BHS faculty are super nice and welcoming and many teachers are eager on helping you achieve.
Overall, I had a very good experience at Burlingame High School. There are so many caring teachers and faculty, so many activities to participate in, a lot of school pride, and overall good curriculum. I felt prepared for state testing and AP exams, and felt supported by students and staff.
I started at BHS over Zoom, that was a shock, but the admin and parent groups helped everyone adjust. when we started to come back and easy back into school, the admin and teachers were very supportive on the return. Even while being fully back, everyone is very helpful when you have questions or need something.
