Burke Life
Meet Our Students
Whether you're at Burke for seven years (as a "lifer") or two years, you are an essential member of this community. While most new students come in 6th and 9th grade, we aim to expand the class size in 7th and 10th grade and often welcome several new students each year in 8th and 11th grade.
