Philosophy

The Brookfield School is a small, independent, co-educational, college preparatory school serving kindergarten through eighth grades. The school is best known for its strong academic curriculum and personal attention. Brookfield's primary purpose is for students to master the core curriculum. This provides a solid foundation for high school, college and post-graduate studies. We also want our students prepared to become independent, productive citizens and enable them to be leaders in their chosen professions.

To achieve these goals, academic standards are high, the curriculum content is rich and classes are small. Teachers are selected for their dedication to teaching an accelerated program and interest in providing individual attention and guidance. Students are selected for their positive attitude toward learning, as well as their expected ability to rise to the high standards and expectations for achievement set by Brookfield.

In our rapidly changing world, the time-honored disciplines in learning are increasingly becoming rare but valued skills. The ability to think, communicate effectively in both oral and written form, and to read and interpret are fundamental and necessary skills. The Brookfield program devotes more time and attention to developing these skills than other schools.

The School has no religious affiliation or instruction and children of many different backgrounds attend. The School is co-educational and welcomes students of all races, religions, and national or ethnic origins. Classes are small and the overall size of the school ensures the personal attention that encourages student achievement and fosters responsible behavior.
