BRENTWOOD SHS

Brentwood SHS is a Title I public high school that is part of the Brentwood Borough SD school district, located in Pittsburgh, PA with about 370 students offering grade levels from 9th Grade to 12th Grade. A Title I school provides supplemental financial assistance to school districts for children from low-income families. Its purpose is to provide all children significant opportunity to receive a fair, equitable, and high-quality education. With about 26 teachers, Brentwood SHS has a student/teacher ratio of about 14:1. The national average for public schools is about 15:1. A lower student/teacher ratio is a key factor that determines how much a teacher can devote his/her time to each individual student thus improving, or reducing (in the event of a higher student/teacher ratio) the attention each student is given for their educational needs.

Brentwood Middle/High School, located at 3601 Brownsville Road in Pittsburgh, serves as the primary secondary education hub for the Brentwood Borough School District. The school operates as a combined facility, providing a continuous educational environment for students in grades 6 through 12. As a community-focused institution, it emphasizes a traditional academic curriculum while fostering a close-knit atmosphere typical of smaller suburban school districts, aiming to prepare students for both higher education and workforce readiness.

The school is known for its commitment to student development through a blend of rigorous coursework, extracurricular athletics, and various student organizations. By integrating middle and high school students within the same campus, the district promotes mentorship opportunities and a unified school spirit under the "Spartans" identity. For families and community members, the district’s official website serves as a central portal for academic calendars, district policies, and ongoing communication regarding school news and administrative updates.
