At Brookwood, kids come first—not the test, not trophies, not to-do lists.
We know how kids learn best. Every day, we use our expertise to challenge kids intellectually and ensure they feel valued so they can grow into their best selves. Because when kids skip down hallways, learn with curiosity, think deeply and take risks, they confidently walk into whatever’s next.

After countless hours and tons of effort to rehearse lines, practice dance moves, and perfect costumes, the 8th graders have concluded filming this year’s unique rendition of the 8th Grade Play, Frozen! In celebration of their effort and to create a health-conscience viewing experience, we are premiering the 8th Grade Play on the big screen at the Topsfield Drive-In Theater on Thursday, May 6.

Mission Statement
Brookwood is a warm, child-centered community of exuberant learners with an extraordinary commitment to both the development of the mind and the development of the self. Through a purposeful balance of challenge, encouragement, and opportunity for appropriate risk-taking, the school fosters lifelong habits of inquiry, critical thinking, creativity and scholarship, just as it instills a healthy sense of self, a flexible mindset and a deep respect for the dignity of others. Ultimately, Brookwood strives to graduate academically accomplished individuals of conscience, character, compassion and cultural competence.
