Welcome Back Bulldogs! Greetings from Burbank Elementary Magnet School for the Visual, Performing, and Folk Arts. I am Ms. Beth Bray, the proud principal of this dynamic school. I am joining the staff this year after serving as principal, magnet coordinator, and teacher in ABCUSD for 13 years. The Burbank staff and community shares my belief in a strong academic program enriched through experiences in the arts.. |

Our Burbank Community Burbank is a school in and of the community. Learning is job one at Burbank and we provide many services for families and children. Burbank provides the after-school programs, EXTRA and Extended Day Program with homework help, arts and crafts, and outside games. The magnet program sponsors Family Arts Nights and the PTA offers evening events for families to have fun and learn together. The ABC Adult School provides Mommy and Me Parent Education classes and evening dance classes. Students can participate in the Mandarin Language and Culture classes after-school. Parents, student and staff celebrate our school spirit each month in a Community Gathering in which students are honored for academic achievement and character. |

Our Burbank Talents Our students explore their talent through the magnet program. Using our newly renovated Fine Arts Center, the students practice and perform. Students create visual arts through the Meet the Masters program and grade-level projects. Students take a dance class every week and have the opportunity to take Jazz, Hip-Hop and Ballet after-school. The Howlers choir performs two shows a year after practicing after-school for many hours. Students act, sing, dance, create props, and serve as stage hands for theatrical performances. The Music Express band performs several times a year. The Burbank Cheer squad performs every month for spirit day and participates in a regional competition in the spring. All children explore their talents at Burbank! |
 Last spring, the Burbank community dedicated the newly renovated Fine Arts Center to retired teacher Margaret Harryman. The staff honored Mrs. Harryman for her many years of service to the Burbank faculty and families |
