Brookwood High School has a strong academic reputation, consistently ranking among the top high schools in Georgia. Over the past 10 years, the school has been ranked as high as 18th out of 435 Georgia high schools and has maintained a 5-star rating from SchoolDigger for most of that time period. However, the school's ranking and rating dipped to 1 star in the 2020-2021 school year, likely due to the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Brookwood High School consistently outperforms the Gwinnett County and Georgia state averages on the Milestones Assessments, a standardized testing program in Georgia, and has maintained a strong four-year graduation rate, ranging from 81.9% to 94.3% over the past several years, which is higher than the Gwinnett County and Georgia state averages.

The International Transition Center serves a unique population of students, primarily English language learners, and its performance is significantly lower than Brookwood and the other nearby schools.

What would motivate your band students to spell out "Coon" at a football game or any school event. I am from California, we have our racial problems too. I just mystified by the boldness of your students. Georgia is the same state that band Ray Charles from performing his art, but a lot student to perform racial hate at half time of a football game. Shame, Shame Close Quote

Special Education is just an afterthought here, especially when compared to the programs in elementary & middle schools in the cluster. Many of the teachers are excellent but others are coaches who are more focused on their sports than education, the department chair is just phoning it in. Close Quote

this school is the best. There are two middle schools in this district,Five Forks Middle and Alton C. Crews Middle. They are both great schools, but I went to Crews and it was the best middle school ever. I believe if you want your child to be succesful, send him to a good middle school and crews is the best.
