Katherine Delmar Burke School, commonly known as Burke's, is an independent girls' school for kindergarten through eighth grade, located in the Sea Cliff neighborhood of San Francisco, California, United States, near Lincoln Park. Until 1975 it also included a high school. It was founded in 1908 by Katherine Delmar Burke and was named Miss Burke's School.
Burke's is one of three all-girl K-8 schools in San Francisco. The school is a member of the California Association of Independent Schools as well as the National Association of Independent Schools. Originally, it could have been a finishing school, but the founder Katherine Delmar Burke wanted girls to be college ready.
