At the start of the 2024-25 school year, the Brentwood School District plans to open a brand new elementary school. This school will be located south of Lone Tree Way and east of Smith Road. We believe that the community will be very proud of this new school facility and we are grateful to all of you who have supported our efforts to fund this needed campus.
We need your help to find a perfect name for our thirteenth school. We believe it is essential for each of our schools to have their own identity and pride. We encourage you to participate in this process by submitting names for us to consider.
