Current families are an invaluable resource for prospective families exploring Brookwood. Please join us at one of our regional events to hear directly from parents about their Brookwood experience. Do you have questions about transportation, the transition, parent involvement, finding community connections or school culture? If so, regional events are a great way to connect with parents and hear first-hand accounts of how they’ve experienced Brookwood.
