Our Mission: The Mission of Burns Science and Technology is to cultivate learners and leaders who are inspired, able, and prepared to make a positive difference in the world.
Our Philosophy: Our educational philosophy is straightforward and profound: in order for students to understand, they must do. We offer a project-based, active learning environment that encourages students to link learning to real-life. We foster critical thinking, independent problem solving, strong communication skills, and ambitious goal-setting.
This mission and philosophy are accomplished through…
Preparing students to SOAR through project-based learning!
Project-Based Learning (PBL) is an instructional practice that encourages students to learn and apply knowledge and skills through a hands-on experience that simulates real-life situations.
EiSTEAM - Entrepreneurs innovating STEAM The EiSTEAM program connects the entrepreneur program with the student’s chosen pathway. Students will learn STEAM skills in their pathway courses while learning business and leadership skills in their entrepreneurship course. These skills will be used to create a school-based enterprise. Students will learn all aspects of running their own business, including developing a business plan, financial management, sales and marketing, and people management. The only way students can experience the rewards of starting their own business without major life consequences is to simulate it within a safe environment.
