THE BRENTWOOD ACADEMY EXPERIENCE
For more than 50 years, Brentwood Academy has offered families academic excellence in a Christ-centered environment. You'll often hear us say, "It's another great day at BA!" and it's true. While many factors make BA unique, including our Triangle Philosophy, commitment to the Christian faith, student traditions, approach to college counseling, and exceptional academic and athletic programs, our best differentiator by far is our faculty.
At BA you'll find experienced faculty who display determined optimism, expertise in their field, and, most importantly, a commitment to our students. Inspired by our mission to nurture and challenge each whole person, our faculty equip students to be successful in college and in life by helping them discover their gifts and talents, develop confidence and initiative, gain knowledge, and build their faith.

THE BA WAY
|
THE BA WAY OUR LOCKERS DON'T LOCKOur “open locker” policy promotes integrity among BA students, encouraging them to respect the belongings of others while also developing the habit of organization for themselves. The open lockers allow students to practice self-control, discipline, and dependability through the expectations that they ask before borrowing, respond quickly to notes left by their teachers, and tidy their lockers at the end of each day. |
THE BA WAY OUR STUDENTS CLEAN THEIR OWN SCHOOLAll BA students participate in cleanup at the end of each school day. Alongside faculty and staff, students develop a sense of ownership and responsibility for the BA community by attending to their cleanup tasks throughout the year. This behavior reinforces a pattern of teamwork and self-discipline developed throughout their experience at Brentwood Academy. |
THE BA WAY WE HONOR BA VALUESOur students commit to a standard of high moral character. They are expected to uphold these values for their entire tenure as a student at Brentwood Academy. This expectation creates a culture of consistent standards for student behavior, holding students accountable and encouraging them to make choices that are beneficial both for themselves and for the BA community as a whole. |
