Brooks High School

Posted January 1, 2009

I am a Brooks graduate and my overall experience with the school was a positive one. I am not saying it was perfect by no means, but the positives definitely out-weigh the negatives. I was an athlete and was involved in many other extracurricular activities. I have read other reviews about how our school is all about football and sports. This is not entirely true. Yes these things are a big part of school life, just as they are at any other school in the South. They bring students together and teach those that participate many valuable lessons that they can use once they graduate. The academic programs at Brooks have prepared me very well for college and I am grateful for the wonderful teachers I had. Brooks is a great school and you can get what you want out of it if you try.

I am a student at Brooks High, and I love it there. There is not really an 'IN' crowd at all, everyone mostly sticks with their friends. I have never been pressured to do anything that I didn't want to do, and I am not bullied, nor have I witnessed being anyone being bullied. It may happen, sure, but it is not openly a problem. We have an extremely smart class, and the students work hard and achieve. Our teachers are great also. I do play sports, and it isn't the school's number one priority. I would recommend this school to anyone, because it isn't difficult to fit in!

Ok there are several things being said wrong on this website about Brooks. I'm going to be up front and honest yes we do have problems at Brooks but they are nothing that every school does not have. I would also like to make some corrections. Starting with we do have calculus! We have wonderful administrators and teachers. I am a straight A student and my parents have never went to the school and been in my business. We also do not have money and I do not play sports and I am treated the same as everyone else. About the whole football parking lot being paved that is stupid not just football players park back there and it is used for more than football games. The front parking lot is paved and the majority of the students park in the front or back.

i'm 16 and about to begin my junior year at Brooks High School. People say that Brooks is just a sports school. Football is the main priority. Yes, football is important, but football season is important to everyone, it brings the school closer together. we are more than football though. I mean just look at the band program, we have one of the best marching bands and auxilaries in the state.Let me remind you, where would marching band be with out the football program? the teachers at our school are great. Yes, they do occasionally get fed up with our antics, but when they know we really want/need the help they are there. Our students make good grades, were not all on drugs and pregnant, were not all out throwing hotel parties at the Marriott, were just being teenagers.
