Burchell High School

Before sending your kid to this school I would check out the background the school has had with inappropriate touching of kids. You think that with the history it would have gotten better with making sure that it wouldn't happen again, but I can tell you my child went there 2023 to 2024 and will not be going back. This school does not protect our children as the teachers in question are still employed there. I have now learned a hard lesson...do more research before you pick a school for your child.

The teachers at this school care about every child. They get to know the families and will go out of their way to help make things better for the families. The principal is stands firm against bullies and all students, staff and families know she takes it seriously. It is a no tolerance! They have great interventions in place to help students who are behind as well as ways to challenge those who are above. Tanaina staff cares about EVERY child.

Excellent education, schools goal is to teach the whole child. Students have daily music and physical education.

I can’t speak to the past but my children go there now. My experience has been amazing, my teenage kids are attending and have attended recently. This school has all new admin, newly renovated classrooms, new rigorous classical curriculum with a focus on deep intellectual topics and discussion. I have seen all my children thrive at this school. My son struggled in math and writing in public school and now these are his favorite topics, mostly due to the teaching style at OLV. Staff is amazing and engaging with parents and really want to teach. This school has small classroom sizes, solid foundation in writing, public speaking, apologetics, theology, Latin, literature (public high school would consider the literature and writing at OLV advanced placement for older high schoolers). When my daughter moved on to public high school she was adequately prepared and performed well above her peers. I love this school because it has helped my children grow in faith and knowledge, and has built on what I have tirelessly instilled in them (morals, values, and faith). I highly recommend this school to families that want a solid faith based education. Best part is there is daily mass, I love attending with my kids when able
