Brookfield Academy located in Brookfield, WI is an excellent school for primary education. I am so glad we chose BA for our daughter. She has received an outstanding education, and the teachers are incredibly kind and supportive. We are grateful to the faculty and the small class sizes which help students focus on math, reading, and writing. The administration really listens to parents and we enjoy the diverse student population from all over the world. We also appreciate the freedom philosophy and the daily prayer at assembly.

Brookfield Academy has been great for my daughter. In Middle School at BA, we've found teachers who get to know their students as individuals. Students have been welcoming and she's had the opportunity to try new sports and activities. Happy we decided to switch.
Endorse Brookfield Academy. Endorsements should be a few sentences in length. Please include any comments on:
- Quality of academic programs, teachers, and facilities
- Availability of music, art, sports and other extracurricular activities
- Academic or athletic awards
