Middle School French

After considerable discussion and listening carefully to all concerned, we have decided to continue the French program in Grades 6 and 7 as it existed this school year. French will therefore remain a quarter course in Grade 6 as well as an option for a year-long course in Grade 7. We appreciate all who took the time to express their opinions on the matter, and are pleased with this decision as it works for the good of our students and our school. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Shoe Drive on May 21-25, 2012

We would like to ask our Brent families to participate in a Shoe Drive to benefit children in our local area who are members of our Brent Chapel community. We are asking for our students and their families to donate footwear that can be worn with a school uniform or be used in PE class. During the week of May 21-25, your child is welcome to bring shoes to school to place in the donation boxes. On the day your child donates a pair of shoes he/she can wear any kind of shoes with the school uniform on that day only. We will be accepting donations of shoes in the final days of school as well. Please see your parent letter for more details.

Slot Reservations!

Information on next year's tuition and slot reservation fees has been sent home. Please be diligent in reserving your child's slot for the 2012-2013 school year by submitting the Re-enrollment Form to the Cashier, as well as paying the fee. Some grade levels are full, so don't delay! To have our students end up without a place in our school next year would certainly be unfortunate. If you are not planning on returning, a parent must fill out the proper Withdrawal Form at the Registrar's Office.

Now Accepting Applications For New Students For S.Y. 2012-2013

If you have other children not currently attending Brent that you wish to enroll for the 2012-2013 school year, please submit an application to the Admissions Office as soon as possible. Application documents can be printed from Brent's website. See the Admissions tab at Home » Admissions. The documents can also be picked up directly from the Admissions Office. Once our office receives the complete application, a day can be scheduled for your child to take Brent's entrance exams and be interviewed. You are encouraged to start the process as soon as possible. The consequence of waiting might be finding a grade level already full. If you have any questions, please let us know how we can assist you with the Admissions process.
