I would never send my children back. If the choice arose. I would home school or invest in private school. My children are all extremely behind even though they were getting all perfect report cards. Does not add up.

We have two children at Brentwood. We came here from California, where the children were in one of the top ranked elementary schools in the state. At our CA school, the academics were a strong focus, but no focus was put on developing the children's character, there was no sense of community, and I couldn't have picked the principal out of a line up - I never saw her. Brentwood has been a complete breath of fresh air. It's an amazing school/community. The principal, Justin Valentine, is out every morning and afternoon greeting the kids and parents. Teachers are caring, involved and communicative. There is a strong focus on character and kindness to others, which I love. Best of all, our kids are very happy there.

I have 3 children going to Brentwood this year. All their teachers are great and the principal is very helpful and kind.

Not a good school for bright kids...they are unchallenged and bored. No one is willing to think outside the box, all teaching and curriculum is scripted. I imagine that most of the public schools function this way, however. Principal seems very uninterested in students and parents. Makes no effort whatsoever to meet parent volunteers. I have stopped volunteering because the school and many of the staff members depress me. We will be moving our son to private school next year.
