School Overview

DeBurgos Bilingual Magnet Middle School serves the Kensington and North Philadelphia communities with a dual-language focus that makes it a meaningful option for Spanish-speaking families looking for a school that genuinely reflects their culture and language at home. The bilingual magnet model means kids are building real academic skills in two languages — something that can open doors later on — even as the school works to strengthen its overall academic performance. Families rooted in this tight-knit, predominantly Latino neighborhood who want their kids to stay connected to their heritage while getting a public school education in a familiar community will find DeBurgos a culturally resonant choice.
