GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The best parts of my experience at Brewster High School is all the student activities and involvement. There are always things to do at school from after school clubs to concerts and musicals.

I would like for there to be more information about applying for colleges, easier access to this information than simply telling students to look for it. My high school experience wasn't bad but also wasn't stand out extraordinary, I simply enjoyed my extracurriculars while studying and preparing for college. Some of my friends went straight into the work force and at times I feel I should have as I feel I wasn't as well prepared for college or college life as I could have been.

Brewster High School overall was a good experience. The safety and cleanliness of the school is overall very good. The academics are good and the class sizes are fair and not overwhelming. The food however is not really appetizing and there aren't a lot of options. Even something like a salad bar could add variety and provide healthy options for the students.

I have 3 kids in this district, one in college already and did very well. They offer plenty of advance placement and now even tech programs to those interested in STEM.
