I've had some of the most engaging, thought-provoking, and inspirational classes during my years at Brentwood High. I will always remember how much I learned here! The teachers are so caring and determined to help you excel in every way!
I can't speak for every student here, but this has been my experience as a student who takes many AP courses and knows many people who rank very highly in their grade.
Most of the classes I've taken have been engaging and beneficial. The teachers tend to care about their students and are willing to take time out of their day to help, as long as you're genuinely trying. However, expectations are also very high--most of the people that I talk to are sleep deprived and stressed, but still not willing to take easier classes or fewer extracirriculars. It's pretty brutal how focused on college and grades people can be.
Despite that, people are pretty nice here, relative to many other high schools. There's very little noticeable or outright bullying, and students tend to be civil to each other and to teachers.

Brentwood has done a spectacular job preparing me for the world. Their leadership skills and tools they provided have made me feel secure in my education throughout my last 4 years here. As I look back in my high school career, I wish that there was more diversity within the student body. Other than that, the school overall does an impeccable job by giving everyone a place to feel heard and accepted, while also challenging them to step outside their comfort zones and into a new realm of thinking.
