I feel like Brainerd has good teachers and does a good job of supporting higher education by giving good AP and college level courses. Where Brainerd does not do well is prepare students for the after school. Beside personal teacher conversations, information about the ACT and SAT, were not explicitly told to the students or the benefits of taking the tests.

Overall, Brainerd High School has taught me many things. I have experienced a lot of good things, and some bad things but generally my experience has been good. The teachers at the school majority very wonderful and care deeply for more than just their students but all students here. Brainerd High School isn't the number 1 school but it definitely is a very good one.

Every child is allowed to fail without teachers or administration intervention. It seems as if no one cares about poor grades except the parents. When failing grades are addressed, they are quick to make you feel like a nuisance. A child spends most of their waking hours in a school building. once a...
