To start off, if you're a star athlete or a talented actor/singer then yay, you have come to the right place! At Brookfield Central High School, the only thing we care about is the sports teams (I'm really only talking about the boys' basketball and football team because every other sport is completely ignored) and our annual musical (to which I will admit, the music department here is pretty good/talented). Are are you planning on coming here for academics? Well, I'm sorry to inform you that you picked the wrong school for that--you should consider attending Brookfield East or Brookfield Academy instead. I say this because only 4-5 teachers here actually catch my eye as exemplary teachers. A large bulk of the teachers here A) don't know how to teach a class, B) don't care about what they are teaching, or C) don't enjoy and are not passionate about teaching. I really hope you rethink your decisions and relook at your options before choosing to attend Brookfield Central High School.
BCHS is a high school like no other, it is one of the most caring schools I've ever been to. They care both about their students and their academics. As someone who's looking at getting into Computer Science, there are opportunities I think you couldn't possibly find at other schools.
I'm taking LAUNCH this year and the experience is priceless. If you want real-world experience and opportunities to build your resume, nothing else comes close. We're working with real companies and teams to develop real products, learning job, and collaboration skills. LAUNCH has tons of different strands for all the different careers you might want to pursue. It's both fun and helps me grow.

My experience at Brookfield Central High School has been quite good: my , interactions with students and staff at the school have largely been positive, friendly, and respectful, the academic rigor at the school is quite strong, and the school has a wide array of activities and extracurriculars to choose from. Perhaps one area for improvement could be stronger dedication to diversity in the school environment.
