School board meeting takes more than four hours, and it gets heated.

Trustee area boundary maps presented to board members who like one in particular.

Dr. Thomas Crowther and varsity softball Coach Doug Nicol highlight School Board Meeting.

On January 26th the Hope Conference Room at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center hosted students from the John Burroughs High School National Academy Foundation (NAF) Medical Academy.  Over a dozen hospital leaders from different clinical areas met with the high school seniors in round table discussions, followed by department tours.

It’s an intense John Burroughs High School varsity softball game. Catcher, Rachel Little, is engaged in the game, watching the field where her teammates are ready and in position. Their cleats are pressed into the field’s dirt, mitts up and ready, waiting for Little to call the pitch and end the inning. In the stands are parents, classmates, and a 10-year-old girl named Skylar Celli-Recht, holding a handmade “Go #2 Rachel” sign and cheering on her favorite player. 

Burbank Unified vocal and instrumental music students take the stage with their professional studio and orchestral musician mentors from Musicians at Play Foundation, for first live performance since the pandemic.

BUSD's last meeting was short but very productive.
