	The Griffin symbolizes Burnsview. It is believed to have originated from Indo-Iranian mythology, the "Gryphon". It was absorbed into the Greek culture as a fabulous creature symbolic of strength and became the Griffin. Griffins are portrayed with a lion's body, an eagle's head, long ears, and eagle's claws to indicate the need to combine intelligence and strength. The mythical Griffin drew the chariot of the sun and guarded a golden treasure.
We believe that this representation depicts what we strive to accomplish at Burnsview where our students are challenged to become the best they can be physically and intellectually.
