Although our child only went there for one year, he had a fabulous year. He absolutely loved his teacher and she worked hard to teach him at his specific level. She was so responsive to parent ideas, and learned new skills just to tap into my child's individual interests. In addition, the art teacher at this school, Ms. Hunt, is outstanding. We were very sad to leave this school. It has a great positive atmosphere.

This is a terrific school! The teachers are second to none. Our son was there for 5 years and we currently have 2 there now. While principals have jumped around - the core teaching staff has remained the same and very strong. I would highly recommend this school. We have many teachers and principals in our family and they have all comment on the positive environment Brooks provides to its students.
