South Brunswick High

We have had 2 children graduate from SBHS, both who went on to become an engineer and our daughter who will graduate this year with her masters in physiology. We currently have 2 children attending SBHS and they are also doing terrific! Both in honors classes. We have been very pleased with the teachers and administrative staff! For the folks that want it done the, 'Northern way', you do realize you moved to the south?! Please, we all, kindly encourage you to hastily move back north for your own happiness. Regards, proud SBHS parent!

I am thankful for the school leaders letting Health Occupations Students of America (HOSA) Future Healthcare Professionals be at South Brunswick High School. This organization gives students an opportunity to learn leadership,teamwork, and compassion for humanity. I may be teaching the next student that will discover the cure for cancer. We are about all medical professions. I wanted to say thank you to the community in Brunswick County for their support of this organization.

In general, we have found the teachers to be knowledgeable in their subject areas and responsive to our emails about grades, homework. Academic rigor, especially in non-honor, non-AP classes, is lacking. In addition, there is room for a great deal of improvement at this school. First, communication between parents and school administration needs to vastly improve. Robocalls are fine for short notice on events but an radically improved school website would let parents and students know important events well ahead of time. For example, testing dates for the year, including ACT and SAT testing. Secondly, guidance needs to become more proactive in communicating important information about college preparation for all four years of high school. Parent coffees by grade level would help. We have been pleased with the safe environment the school provides and I hope the new principal will work to make SBSH a more academically progressive school.

This school needs more structure, less hours, cooperative staff.......bottom line, it needs to be like a Northern school.
