The school setting at Brick, contrary to popular belief by the student body, has started to improve.

Also, the teachers show compassion and care
... Read more about teaching, in general. I have had very few teachers who didn't personally care about the success of their students. This extends to help after class, or after school. Almost any teacher would stay after school to help a pupil in need, given that the student asks for it. For the few teachers that do not fall into this category, I believe that a few teachers like that exist in any school. However, most teachers care deeply about their students. Read less

She only sees her counselor once a year to schedule classes for the following year. Little counseling is provided for career interests. Also the school is lacking
... Read more in the extracurricular area. Unless a student is sports orientated, he/she has little if no clubs or organizations to join. When the school budget was not passed the few clubs of this type were dissolved. However, little if no cuts were made to the sports programs. The Administration is more concerned with random drug testing. There are many other issues that need to be addressed including the prejudices against minority students, the large number of alternate route teachers in the Math Department and the serious lack of communication between the student body and the admainistrative staff.
