All addresses in Burlingame go to Burlingame High School (In 2003, the district lines were redrawn to incorporate this change). Burlingame High is within the San Mateo Union High School District (not the Burlingame School District, which includes all five public elementary schools and BIS). To verify enrollment information, please contact the High School District.

Burlingame shares a common history with neighbors San Mateo, Millbrae and Hillsborough, but only up to a point. Like the surrounding communities, Burlingame was once the site of native Costanoan villages and then part of a Mexican land grant (Rancho Buri Buri to the north and Rancho San Mateo to the south). Burlingame’s history diverges from that of nearby Peninsula cities in the late 1800s, when Francis Newlands, son-in-law of landowner and Nevada Senator William Sharon, came up with a plan to turn this stretch of real estate into a playground for San Francisco’s wealthiest residents.
