Transformative

The Brewster Model revolutionizes education with its transformative components. Academic teams ensure a personalized education by adopting a team approach, creative connective tissue across all disciplines. This model is rooted in Brewster's commitment to students and defies traditional ability-based separation, fostering an inclusive environment.

Empowering

Our primary academic goal is to empower learners, foster academic success and passion. Our program emphasizes one singular objective—to help them become the best learner possible. Engaging classes unlock their full potential, supported by teachers skilled in the art and science of teaching. It's the way education should be.

Student-Centered

Our curriculum and teaching practices foster their success and engagement. Brewster's intentional, student-centered approach meets them where they are, challenging and stretching them appropriately. Their questions shape discussions, and teachers differentiate instruction across academic disciplines, tailoring learning to individual needs.

Collaborative

Both experience and research have convinced us that the students learn most effectively when they are engaged with and teaching others, so at Brewster, they are asked to do just that. They will find learning at Brewster is dynamic, engaging, and active—both in and outside of the classroom.

Diverse

Brewster is a place where students are known as a person, challenged as an individual, and respected for their unique talents and abilities. Here they will learn about and from their classmates, and in the process of collaborating, they will learn the value of drawing together a range of individual perspectives and talents.
