I am a Sophomore and have been here since first grade. This school has problems. Most of the teachers are prejudice against people who wear a lot of black. Teachers say they don't have favorite students but thats a lie. The school claims not to discriminate but I've found many flaws in that area. for example: boys can't wear ear rings but girls can. Goth/emo/punk or anything similar is discriminated against. For example: Last year i dyed some of my hair purple, I got I.S.S. on the 3rd day after dyeing my hair. But I know of at least 6 preppy teacher's pets who had pink hair for 3 weeks and they weren't punished. And I had to take out my color and they didn't. I brought it to the school's attention and they didn't do anything about it. I wish i could say more but theres a word limit
I am a former student at BISD and a current parent of a junior high student and a high school student. Like all schools, this one has a few issues, but overall it is a good school. I had no problem transitioning into college from there, and I performed well in college with the base of education I received at Brownsboro. My kids are both flourishing there. Just this morning, I met with Mr. Wooten, the high school principal, about an issue between my daughter and one of her teachers. Within an hour, he called me at work to inform me of the actions he took to address the issue. He is a fine man, and there are many fine teachers throughout the school system, several of whom attend my church. The school and community make this the best place for my family. Class of 1986
I am in Intermediate at B-Boro and I love it my mom and dad are both teachers at the high school so if ur moving to this area go to brownsboro its really a great school!
Mr. Wooten, the principal, is new and should be given a chance to make things better. As in most small towns, most of the emphasis is placed on football, and there aren't many extra curricular activities. My son was in AP, but chose to take reg classes. His English teacher, no longer there, was wonderful, but she wasn't like the other teachers. Mr. Wooten promises to find more like her in the future, so maybe things will change.
Mrs. Wesley and Mrs. Porsh make this school what they are because they are exquisite teachers. Mrs. Wesley has helped a tremendous amount on my writing skills and being a leader instead of a follower. She is funny and has a gret personality.
It is getting better with recent administration changes. Still one big change needed, however, but he will have to retire. There are some great teachers and staff that really care if students (no matter whose children they are) learn and they care for their emotional well being. There just isn't enough of those type teachers. Too many coaches.
I graduated from brownsboro high school in 2004! I think Mrs.Erman and Mrs.Giles along with Mrs brewton were by far the best teachers there! The school has room for improvement but all in all its a pretty good school!
I am a former student of BISD. I when there most of my life. It a wonderful school. very much in They take great pride in there student. To name a few their geart teacher mrs.Wesley, mrs,Giles Mrs.hergertry and mrs. James.yes is small school but it better because you get to know everybody.
I am a former student of Brownsboro High. It is a small school, however the student/teacher ratio is high. Most of the teachers don't make much of an effort with the students unless they are athletic. There isn't much to be learned by this low budget school; suprisingly, English is their only strong point.
