Overview
At Brook Hill, our goal is that every student who walks the halls will become a better learner, leader, listener, problem-solver, and friend. Students are given the opportunity to excel academically, mature spiritually, and engage globally. The Brook Hill School is committed to training students to be confident in both their faith and their education. A Brook Hill education prepares them to read insightfully, think critically, solve problems logically, and communicate effectively within the framework of a Biblical worldview. Brook Hill students are encouraged to discuss ideas with genuine intellectual inquiry and Christian charity. A Brook Hill foundation equips them to make good decisions, grounded in the faith; to face the challenges of the real world, without being sheltered from them; and to impact others for God's glory. We believe in: The Pursuit of Academic Excellence, Providing Comprehensive Curricular, Co-curricular and Extra-curricular Programs, Spiritual and Character Formation, and A Biblical Worldview.

A balance of instruction is offered so that students grow in knowledge, skills, and wisdom through the perspective of a biblical worldview. This strong balance contributes to the academic success that abounds at Brook Hill.
