MISSION STATEMENT: At Brooks School, we seek to provide the most meaningful
educational experience our students will have in their lives.

ANTI-RACISM STATEMENT: Brooks School strives to be an anti-racist school,
understanding that this work is continuous and is central to our role as an educational
institution. Racism and other forms of systemic oppression are deeply rooted in all
institutional and societal structures: We condemn institutional racism and white
supremacy in all forms, including those that exist at Brooks. As a community that values
each member’s sense of belonging, our goal is to foster an inclusive environment in
which everyone can live, work and learn free from prejudice, discrimination and
marginalization. While we recognize that racism occurs both intentionally and
unintentionally and is often a result of unconscious bias, we also know that its presence
hinders our ability to provide the most meaningful educational experience our students
will have in their lives. Therefore, at Brooks School we are united in the fight to identify,
acknowledge and dismantle systems of oppression and inequality. In order to do this
work effectively, we will draw on our foundation: strong community, core values, and
commitment to care, support and growth of every member of the community.

EEO STATEMENT: Brooks School does not discriminate on the basis of race, gender,
color, sexual orientation, disability or religion in the administration of its educational
policies, admission policies, employment policies, financial aid and loan programs,
athletic programs and other school administered programs and activities
