History
The Burlingame School District has a rich history that traces back to the aftermath of the 1906 earthquake in San Francisco. The earthquake prompted a significant population increase in Burlingame, from around 200 residents before the disaster to approximately 1000 in 1907. Prior to this surge, Burlingame's children were educated through the county at the Burlingame School on Peninsula Avenue and County Road (El Camino), which was constructed in 1906 and later renamed Peninsula Avenue Schools.
The desire for a dedicated school district led Burlingame residents to vote in favor of its establishment in 1911. Plans were set in motion to build a permanent school, designed by renowned architect William H. Weeks. In 1912, during construction, a temporary 8-room schoolhouse known as "the little red schoolhouse" was erected on Howard and Primrose streets.
In September 1913, the first permanent Burlingame School opened on the corner of Oak Grove and Grange (now Paloma Avenue). Known as Burlingame Grammar School, the brick building featured columns on the front, a hallmark of Weeks' architectural style.
