MIND
A PASSION TO LEARN
While our academic roots are in a traditional, college preparatory curriculum, we also inspire students to dig deeper into their unique God-given talents and interests.
The BA vision statement proclaims that the school is committed to delivering "exceptional academics in a Christ-centered environment." This is lived out in the quality of our faculty who are leading learning in our classrooms. 60% of our teaching faculty have post-baccalaureate degrees and all are skilled in their craft.
Our faculty members recognize that academic excellence looks different for each student. They are committed to the mission and ministry of Brentwood Academy and care not just for the academic side of each student but for their whole person. Our faculty forge relationships with students in smaller classroom settings, through regular collaborative meetings with fellow colleagues in each grade level, and by working with students' advisors who know our students deeply.
It is not just our faculty team that is exceptional, our programs include opportunities for 40 honors and 21 Advanced Placement courses, allowing students to pursue honors and AP courses in each discipline. With exemplary fine arts experiences as well, students at BA complete a well-rounded liberal arts education during their tenure here.
100% of all BA graduates are accepted to a four-year university.
