GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Overall I think that Brooks DeBartolo High School is a really good school that has been hit hard by the loss of budget for one reason or another. Not only this but also the loss of teachers and individuals qualified to teach certain classes. However even with all of this Brooks has many great things to offer, especially with its different clubs and activities all of which aim to help enrich the experiences of students.

Most of the teachers at Brooks were incredible, specifically Mr. Marcus, Ms. Carsey, Ms. Zamot, and Ms. Soltis. The school itself is going through an administration transition however which makes things a little more chaotic than previous years.

I've gone to this school for 3 years and it's been interesting. Academics are amazing, you all the help you would to be successful the only problem is administration is changing all the time they don't have a steady team. Brooks sports wise is great there just isn't a football team.

A large complaint was the administration. And while yes, we did struggle with the new rules and people in charge, it also...

We had a similar experience as the parent below and pulled our son after the first semester of his sophomore year and sent him to our local school. Teachers consistently handed out inflated grades despite the students not learning the material. Our son received an A in chemistry but didn’t have a te...

Future parents and HS students, if you have other HS offers or opportunities, take it. You do not want to come to Brooks De Bartolo Collegiate HS.I am a parent at BDCHS and it sadens me to say that our school is no longer what it used to be. Under the prior Principal our school, was organized, fair,...
