I had an awesome time at BHS. Years spent on the JV and then Varsity soccer team. Four years in the theatre and doing photography and tech and volunteering all over the place. I learned a great deal of things while attending classes and extracurricularly. Thanks to all of my wonderful teachers and friends!

There are a few teachers at this school who care but most fail to check e mails, fail to enter grades in a timely manner and basically just do not care.

They allow teasing and bullying and the teachers just turn their heads. The higher ups try to just brush it under the rug.

They play favoritism at B.H.S. for sure. Complain in any way and expect to be on their "list" for your remaining time there.

They need to consider each childs abilities and disabilities on a case by case basis and make accommodations accordingly.

They do nothing about the bullying which is awful. We had to go over their heads to the school board and still not much was done.

On a scale of 10 maybe a 2, for the couple of teachers there who actually try to help and teach their students. Most seem to be there just for a check.

We moved to the area "temporarily" and thought our child would only be in Brunswick High School for a few months. However, he grew to love it, and we decided not to move to Northern Virginia after all because of the positive experience here. BHS is the smallest high school in Frederick County, but it's actually great since my child is not just "a drop in the bucket". From talking with friends involved with other high schools in the area, I get the impression that Brunswick just doesn't have as many problems with drugs, violence, "worldliness", that other places do. The kids I have seen and gotten to know seem like good down-to-earth kids overall. I have gotten to know a lot of the staff and teachers as well --I have gotten very positive impressions about them all. There's a new principal this year who I've heard good things about too. Of course, no school is perfect, but we are very happy with Brunswick Hight School.
