My son is a middle schooler, he absolutely loves it. His academic work load is a multiple of what he had in the public school last year. He is now exceptionally challenged, really enjoys being with other bright and kind and respectful boys. Yes this is middle school where kids are usually at their most difficult, yet these kids are all so well mannered and respectful. Best decision ever was to go to Brunswick.

Tom Philip is unfit to be around children. He treats his employees horribly.

The educationally-awake families in Greenwich send their children to boarding school. Brunswick School is the reason why.

If I had to pick a word to describe the Brunswick experience, it is 'shallow.' Everything about the place seems to be okay: people are pleasant, the place is nice-looking, and everyone seems to possess a minimum level of competence and manners. But, in reality, the school is an attempt to assess whether the unexamined life really is worth living. I disagree with those who say it has an athletic culture; what it really has is a keep-it-pleasant, see-no-evil=hear-no-evil culture which stunts analytic thinking. The other element of this never-ending Polyanna-ism which derives from Headmaster Philip is that there aren't people around who are adept at critical thinking, whether in the classroom or out. Pleasant. Decent. But hollow. Find me a Brunswick graduate who's gone on to any level of success in something which requires agile thought.

I do not know what happened in 2016 to gain so much animosity but I attended in the 90s and Brunswick had the same issues as any other school out there. The difference was the focus on defeating those perceptions. The preparation when compared to many schools out there was one of excellence. Maybe things have changed, but I do not understand how. I count many of my teachers as mentors and role models I follow to this day.
