Hip Hip Array! Our 2nd graders have been studying multiplication and submitted pictures of arrays that they’ve spotted around the community. The best was the Ranger that noticed his mom’s cottage cheese was stacked in an array! 🤣 Love seeing all the real-world connections our Rangers are making with their learning. #rangerready #rangerup

En garde! Our PE coaches plan the coolest lessons for our Rangers! Today we caught a glimpse of our Rangers learning about fencing in PE class. Just one of the many ways we are “sharpening” our minds and skills! 🤺 #rangerready

About Us

Brookwood Forest Elementary is one of the four elementary schools in the Mountain Brook School system. Brookwood Forest Elementary is blessed with a name that captures our aspirations for our learning community. We can’t imagine a more apt metaphor for the growth of a child than that of a seed to a healthy tree. It’s even more impactful to imagine the power of a group of trees being unified in supporting each other in that process. Our school cheer, “Many trees, one Forest,” is reflected throughout our school community.
