Summary

Burlingame Junior/Senior High serves 151 students in grades 6–12 in Burlingame, Kansas. Its 2025–2026 proficiency was 40% in English Language Arts (ELA), 25% in math and 35% in science; its 2023–2024 graduation rate was 100%. Attendance is a concern: chronic absenteeism was 24% in 2025–2026, compared with 18% statewide. The clearest academic priority is math, where proficiency was 16 percentage points below the state and 7 points below the nearby-school average.

Compared with nearby schools, Burlingame’s ELA and science results are stronger than average, while math is weaker. ELA proficiency was 40%, above the nearby average of 34% but below the state’s 46%; it was also 5 points above the Burlingame Public School district. Science was 35%, above the nearby average of 29% and the district’s 33%, but 3 points below the state’s 38%. Math was 25%, below the nearby average of 32%, the district’s 26% and the state’s 41%. These results show that the school’s academic picture is not uniformly weak: math stands out as the main gap.

Results have improved since 2022–2023: proficiency rose 16 points in ELA, 14 in math and 17 in science, with science’s gap to the state narrowing by 10 points. Even so, the latest math result remains well below the state. SchoolDigger placed the school at the 40th percentile statewide, with 2 stars, and seventh among the 10 nearby schools; its percentile rose 13 points from the prior year. SchoolDigger’s measure of how well the school serves male students rose from the 3rd percentile in 2018–2019 to the 39th in 2025–2026, close to its overall 40th-percentile standing. The student-teacher ratio is 11.4, compared with a nearby average of about 10, and the free/reduced-lunch rate was 44%, below the nearby average of about 49%.
