This place is a joke. It is basically a childcare facility. My child is doing so much better both emotionally and intellectually at new school..so glad we pulled her out.

I have two children here, ages 3 and 1 and I absolutely love the school. My oldest daughter has learned so much and my youngest, who started going here at 3 months, receives so much love and attention from the teachers. Highly recommend Brentwood!

We absolutely LOVE Brentwood Academy. I have 2 children that have attended this past year. Both have grown socially and intellectually while there. I've also seen marked improvement in their behavior. The teachers are fantastic. They are interested in doing what is best for each child. They never label a child, but instead continue to work with that child in the areas that are needing more work. As a working mom it can be difficult to leave your child for the day, but I felt better knowing that my kids were at a great preschool with caring teachers that truly cared for my kids. The teachers aids are especially loving, which my daughter really needed as she was just 2. I felt she was getting the love and attention that she needed in my absence. Although the classrooms seem small, I love that there is such a big outdoor space for them to run and play. I can't say enough great things about this school. I consider it a hidden gem, as most parents have heard about it by word of mouth.

The teachers are the real stars here. Ms. Lauren, Mrs. Bauer and Mrs. Sharma are outstanding. School leadership could stand to be more present but I will say that if a problems arises it is dealt with quickly with the children's best interest at heart. We love Brentwood!

My daughter learned so much - great teachers! Ms Bauer is awesome with the 3-yr olds.... but the director chased away several teachers in my daughter's previous classroom. Her pre-K teacher last year was great - hopefully she is still there! But it seemed that if you disagreed with the director or criticized the school, it was your child's ticket out (this happened to one of her classmates and to several other children throughout her years there). I was hyper-vigilant about not doing anything to make waves. Regardless, my daughter loved it there and learned so much - well-beyond her Pre-k years... I'd still recommend them (5 stars on academics), but with slight reservation (leadership - 2 stars).
