In the fall of 2008, Brooks will unveil its new "green" science building. It will house three state of the art laboratories, a lecture hall, and plenty of open space in which students and faculty can interact.
The new science bulding will complement Brooks' other outstanding facilities including newly constructed athletic facilities. The main gym has three hard wood courts, a fitness center/weight room overlooking the courts, and a wrestling room. Attached to the gym is the newly renovated ice hockey rink. The squash/rowing center features 10 international size squash courts and two indoor rowing tanks. This facility is unique amongst small boarding schools.
Newly added in 2008-Mandarin Chinese!
