My daughter has been attending BK for the past two years and I cannot day enough great things about it! It really all starts with the principal Mr. Gutierrez, hes involved in everything regarding the school, Ive never seen such an engaged principal and it rubs off onto the staff who are involved and excited to teach and help whenever needed. My daughter has gotten straight As almost every trimester with the occasional B however for the students who struggle in math or English their are intervention type classes and resources available to them and for the other subjects such as science, history, Spanish etc. the teachers are always eager to help the struggling students in anyway possible.
Recently the school added state of the art science classrooms equipped with everything students could possibly need to do any variety of science experiments or lessons.
There are also opportunities for students who are advanced to learn more and challenge themselves with a variety of programs including leadership and science programs.
The eighth grade also has the opportunity to go to Washington DC lead by Mr. Gutierrez.
Im very happy with my decision to send my daughter to BK. When entering seventh grade she was suppose to attend another local middle school but I put in a request to transfer her and its been the best decision. They also have a wide range of sports programs that are very well organized.

This school has proven its self over and over to the parents and children. The staff and principal have been so motivating to the young adults attending this school, they are true role models. They offer so many sports and extra curricular activities. This school truly feels like a giant family rather than a public school. I'm proud to say my children attend this school. The support offered here is outstanding.
