Additionally, the schools serve a higher proportion of economically disadvantaged students, with 44.97% of Burlingame Junior/Senior High students and 50% of Burlingame Elementary students receiving free or reduced-price lunch. While the schools spend more per student than the state average, the academic underperformance suggests a need for a closer examination of resource allocation and targeted interventions to support student success.
