The best experiences I've had at Briarwood as meeting all of the kind and amazing people that the school has to offer. The worst experiences have mostly come from sports as they have been a bit biased at my high school however, this didn't stop me and I continued playing club volleyball.

I personally have had an amazing experience at Briar Woods High School. I am a senior this year and have been a cheerleader and lacrosse manager all four years at this school. I am super close with the administrators and they make it priority to make sure every student feels safe as well as get to know each and every student. The teachers here are mostly that I have had have been great. They always have extra office hours for extra help and want us to succeed in our learning.

So much better than the middle school in this school zone, what a horror that was! Briar woods focuses too much on sports, in my opinion. Too many emails about fundraisers, games, try outs and trophies. And if your kid wants to try out, they need to begin skilling in that sport in 6th grade. As well...
