"Everybody today seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for greater developments and greater riches and so on, so that children have very little time for their parents. Parents have very little time for each other, and in the home begins the disruption of peace in the world."

Saint Finbar, a WCEA / WASC accredited school, has been serving the Catholic Community of the Burbank and Glendale area since 1945. The school is located on the picturesque corner of Olive Ave and Keystone Street in Burbank. Our grades include Early Fives, Kindergarten, and Grades One through Eight. In addition to the challenging academic standards of the Catholic curriculum, the school offers music, French, Spanish, physical education, computers, science lab, art and an elective period for the junior high. Our extracurricular activities include a full athletic program, student council, youth ministry, liturgical choir, newspaper, and yearbook. We offer morning care from 6:45 am to 7:30 am and after school care from 2:50 pm to 6:00 pm. Most of our graduates go on to private Catholic High Schools. Our friendly office staff will assist you with any questions and the application process. We look forward to hearing from you!
MISSIONWe are a Catholic Parish School and are a ministry of the larger Catholic Community of Saint Finbar Church. We encourage all school families to become active, stewardship parishioners who worship together as a family and participate in the ministries of the parish community. Our students are guided to an understanding of the dignity, uniqueness, and value of each person, with a special emphasis on the less fortunate. We strive to create an atmosphere where spiritual, intellectual, psychological, social, physical, and aesthetic growth can take place within each student. Our extensive Enrichment Programs and strong Catholic Identity strengthen this atmosphere.

We envision that this anticipated development and growth will result in our graduates pursuing the Sacrament of Confirmation and staying connected to their faith through the parish Youth Group. We trust that the formation of our students received here at the school will enable them to become productive and effective Catholic leaders for today’s society who model Christ by serving each other and the world
