Juniors, Seniors, and families: If you have asked yourself any of the following: When should I be researching colleges? When should I be applying to colleges? How do I apply to college? What do colleges look for when reading applications? Then you should consider attending our upcoming College Chat on Thursday, October 20, 6 pm, in the Brewer High School lecture hall.

Congratulations to Brewer High School senior Jahfari Maddo. Jahfari has earned academic honors from the College Board National Recognition Programs. These National Recognition Programs grant underrepresented students with academic honors that can be included on college and scholarship applications and connect students with universities across the country, helping them meaningfully connect to colleges and stand out during the admissions process. We are proud of this recognition for Jahfari's commitment to academic excellence. Go Witches!

A reminder for parents/guardians of incoming Freshmen and all other new students that our Freshman/New Student Orientation will take place on Wednesday, August 31, at Brewer High School. Doors open at 7 o’clock, but we’ll really get started at 7:55. This will be a full day for your student with lunch provided by the school. Students will get to run through their schedules, meet their teachers, and learn about other extracurricular opportunities that the school offers. If your student has not picked up their laptop, they will be able to do so on that day, provided they have the $25 laptop fee. Checks for the laptop fee should be made out to Brewer High School. Students will be dismissed at 2:10. We are looking forward to welcoming your student to Brewer High School and working with them in the upcoming school year. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to the high school main office at (207) 989-4140.
