Hello and welcome to our Vanguard Academy! My name is Amanda Vasquez and I am proud to be the Vanguard Coordinator at Burbank Middle School.
This is my secretary, Mrs. Rodarte. We both work very hard to make sure all our Vanguard teachers, students, and parents are well taken care of.
Burbank Middle School was originally founded in 1927, but was rebuilt to its current configuration in 1949. We had one of the first four Magnet Vanguard Programs in HISD, being designated in 1975.Our students enjoy the benefits of the best education in this great State of Texas. Follow me as I give you a short tour, for much has happened since then!

TEA has designated our school as a "Met Standards with Distinctions" Campus.Our students achieved seven of the seven Academic Distinctions that the State of Texas awards schools for the years 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and 2022!You can access the reports by pressing School Report Cards.TEA has not yet released the official School Report Card for 2022-2023, but HISD has released the district school accountability ratings for that year.Burbank Middle School is one of the few middle school campuses which has achieved a "B" rating under the new guidelines. It has achieved a higher rating than HISD in 14 of the 15 indicators.It is also the highest rated campus in the North District.Read all about it on the Distinctions Designations page!
