The students are nice and they care to do well in school. Some of the teachers are excellent and care to prepare the kids for college. One teacher asks the students to bring him food to get extra credits. Principal, vice principal, Athletic Director went to college together so you have to be careful when you want to discuss any type of sports or coach related problems because they will take revenge in the student. Even teachers say it, but they can’t helped the students because they are afraid they will get fired.

I had a great experience attending high school here. Students were motivated and academic-oriented, and generally respectful of others.

Fantastic. Absolutely love Elmbrook and Brookfield C. Having my kids in another WI district - we moved back in less than 6 months - so they could be here.

This is a school that caters to kids that are used to hearing that they are the best thing since sliced bread, without any justification. The school strongly favors parents with ample time to babysit their teenagers along with singing praise to the administration of the school. The ACT and SAT scores have been either stagnant or on the decline for the past 3 years. The number of seniors admitted to Ivy Leagues is in the single digits out of classes with several hundred students each. If you want the best college prep for your kid and do not have time to babysit your kid's every step, please do yourself a favor and look at multiple private schools that offer a much better college admission outcome.

This is an academically rigorous school and, therefore, has done an excellent job of preparing my child for college!
