School Overview

Tucked into the heart of Burbank's family-friendly Magnolia Park neighborhood, Bret Harte Elementary is a solid neighborhood school that punches above average across English, math, and science — a reassuring option in a district that takes academics seriously. Burbank itself has a small-town feel despite sitting squarely in the middle of Los Angeles County, with tree-lined streets, good local restaurants, and a community that tends to stay and put down roots. Families who want a reliable public school experience without the chaos of larger LA districts, and who appreciate being close to parks, studios, and the quirky charm of Magnolia Boulevard, will feel right at home here.
