Brentwood Elementary School
Rhona Williams: Brentwood Elementary is an outstanding school in terms of caring and concerned faculty and staff. We go above and beyond the call of duty for our students because we believe that they are worth it. Our school has a 97 percent free- reduced lunch population. We are located in the midst of 5 apartment complexes and a residential area whose families transition in an out with much frequency.
We are in the process of trying to increase our average yearly progress and school test scores. We have a dedicated staff whose mission is to make a difference in the lives of the children we teach and touch. We are crossing the line to excellence day by day and we know with hard work,prayer, and continous parent and community support, we will get there. We are giving our students the skills necessary for success.
