Nothing is more important to us than building character. The entire Brunswick community is committed to instilling in our boys, by example and through experience, the qualities all true gentlemen possess — qualities that will make them respectful, courageous, honest, and honorable sons, friends, leaders, and citizens.
-
We believe in the wonder and worth of every boy. We believe in providing a school environment clearly for boys — understanding, cherishing, and celebrating those qualities that are uniquely their own.
We believe deeply in the tremendous potential of boys, and we have deliberately and successfully sculpted an educational experience that emphasizes rigorous traditional learning, self-discipline, and character development.
-
At a general assembly to open the 1907 academic year, students unanimously chose “Courage, Honor, Truth” as their school motto. Today, these clarion words still resound in every classroom, on every stage and playing field, in every office and hallway.
They are constant reminders, inspiring all of us as we work to fulfill our mission of building young men of character.
-
Both in and out of the classroom, Brunswick faculty members take seriously their awesome responsibility to build the character of their students. They model, understand, and reaffirm the importance of Courage, Honor, Truth.
Brunswick teachers are an essential part of the lives of our boys and the life of our school.
-
Small, intimate classes give faculty the ability to engage and work closely with the boys — challenging, guiding, and influencing them while teaching them to embrace fundamental lessons and grasp complex concepts.
-
It is extremely important to involve boys with different art forms, not only to develop their talents, but also to encourage appreciation of the aesthetic dimension of the world.
Often, our boys display a penchant for music, theater, or the visual arts, and others simply enjoy the experience and learn something about themselves by taking a creative risk and experimenting in new media.
-
At Brunswick, the playing field poses exceptional opportunities for character development. Sportsmanship, teamwork, and hard work, in the context of both exercise and good-natured competition, all contribute to our boys’ growth as honorable individuals.
We wholeheartedly subscribe to the tenet that a healthy body is equal in importance to a healthy mind in a balanced person with a positive self-image.
-
Brunswick endeavors to serve communities and causes greater than its own. Every student, every faculty member, and the school itself must accept the responsibilities and obligations that accompany our many blessings. Even our youngest students participate in volunteer opportunities, which evolve over the years to full-fledged service projects in the Upper School.
