Burkburnett High School, overall, is a school that defines the culture and lifestyle of the small town of Burkburnett, Texas. The student body is extremely diverse in their desired path of study and extracurricular involvement alike. While some facilities like locker rooms and gymnasiums are not in the best condition currently, the administrators in charge of said facilities have worked effortlessly since I have attended this school to rebuild and improve the quality of our school in general. Academically, the school and staff provide countless resources to assist in both high school success and college readiness such as a vastly expanded library, an outstanding college readiness program and administrator, and teachers that support students, no matter what their educational intentions are. Burkburnett High School is not the perfect school, and it's small-town entrapment plays a big role in this, but the staff works with what they have to make the school it's best, no matter what.
I had a great experience in Burkburnett, TX. I moved there after my sophomore year of high school, and since day one I felt like I was part of the community. All the staff at the high school was outstanding and ultimately led me to believe, Texas was the right destination to pursue a college degree. It has now been 3 years. I decided to attend Texas Tech University, and I will never forget how much that small town impacted my life!
Burkburnett's main strength is its teachers, as well as its flexibility. I had an abnormal situation in which I had been moved up a grade in only math in elementary school, and in previous schools I had difficulty getting put into the higher grade level, but at Burkburnett I had no struggle doing so; additionally, when I chose to graduate early in the first few weeks of my junior year, the administration was extremely helpful in ensuring I had all my credits accounted for. The teachers are extremely good and eager to help students, and the school also has plenty of time available for students to seek help outside of class. Although the school has a few minor pitfalls, it does its best with what it has and ultimately offers a good learning environment.
