Brentwood High School has received multiple accolades for its academic and co-curricular achievements. Twice named a Blue Ribbon School, Brentwood was also selected by U.S. News & World Report as one of the Best High Schools in the Country. Brentwood High was named one of Missouri’s Best Schools by Niche and received the 2020 College Success Award from GreatSchoools.org. It has also been named a Missouri Gold Star School and is an A+ Certified school with the Missouri Department of Education.
Serving students in grades 9-12, Brentwood High has a total enrollment of around 215. Two-thirds of these students test proficient or higher in both math and reading. On average, 85 to 90 percent of Brentwood High graduates attend college or technical school.
The school offers ample preparation for these pursuits. Brentwood High partners with South Technical High School to provide students with the opportunity to explore tuition-free career and technical education programs, through which students can earn industry certifications and college credit. Project Lead the Way, a national advanced college credit program, is also available for students to complete honors level courses and earn college credits.
Brentwood High also features a strong athletics department. Students can participate and earn letters in field hockey, football, volleyball, basketball, wrestling, baseball, track, soccer, tennis, debate, and cheerleading.
The school district invested heavily in a 2018-2023 construction renovation project to update all facilities. The focus of renovations at Brentwood High were to enhance safety and security, accessibility, and classroom learning. The updates offer fresh, innovative surroundings to provide a safe and enriched learning environment for the students of Brentwood High.

All teachers go above and beyond to help their students do their best.

One of the best public schools in the state. Courses are challenging and most students find themselves in classes that suit their academic needs very well.
