Principal's Message

Dear BHS Community,


Burlingame students know how to take advantage of opportunities. The BHS Olympics had been scheduled by Leadership for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, and sure enough those were our sunny days this week, with torrential rain on Tuesday and Thursday. Hundreds of students flocked to the practice field to compete with their 4th period class or cheer on their classmates. Meanwhile over the past few weekends, our music students performed Unanimously Superior in their disciplines. Simultaneously, our Robotics program is gearing up to travel out-of-state to their competitions. Our winter athletics are winding down and hoping for playoff berths, while spring athletics are about to begin. 


As you look ahead, check out classrooms during Open House on Thursday, March 13. Then decide now who you will take to the BHS Drama performance of Something Rotten. Then pick the date: March 14-16, 21-23. To call yourself a Panther, you must see our amazing Drama students in action!

Parents Group President's Message

Dear BHS Families,

First, a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has already contributed to the Excellence Fund this year. Your generosity makes a direct impact on our students, teachers, and programs.

For those who plan to give but haven’t yet, now is the time. We’ve raised over $400,000 toward our $560,000 goal, but as we approach our commitment deadlines, we are at risk of falling short.

Next week, I will be notifying Principal Fong that we may not meet our target. If that happens, she will need to plan program cuts for next year and begin the difficult process of scaling back resources. The Excellence Fund directly supports college and career planning, teacher-led special projects, and many other programs that make Burlingame High School such a strong and vibrant community.

If you’ve been waiting to see if your support is truly needed this year, it is. Your contribution—at any level—makes a difference.

Please consider making your donation today to help us reach our goal and continue funding these vital programs.

Thank you for your support!

Mike Jarrett
