Academics

Have you heard about the Brookwood Cluster STEAM Program? Here are a video and outline of the new educational initiative. If you or your business would like to become a STEAM Educational Partner, this flyer is a great way to get started.

The 27th Annual Brookwood Invitational Scholars Bowl is one of the largest academic tournaments in the Southeast and will take place at our school, Saturday, November 22, hosted by our very own Brookwood Academic Team.

GA Tech's Students Exploring Engineering Program for 9th and 10th grade girls is January 29. A $25 fee covers materials and meals. Register here or see Mrs. Varzaly in Counseling.

Let us know how we are doing. We invite you to take the parent perception survey when you log in to the parent portal. Your feedback is important to us.

Moving and withdrawing at the end of the semester? Contact Laura Price in the Counseling Office by December 5 to complete the necessary paperwork.

November 24-28 is our Thanksgiving holiday.
