Brentwood School District

What Brentwood School District does

Brentwood School District is a public K-12 school district founded in 1920, serving more than 800 students from preschool through grade 12 across three campuses in Brentwood, a municipality in St. Louis County, Missouri. The district operates five schools: Brentwood Early Childhood Center (preschool ages 2-5), Mark Twain Elementary and McGrath Elementary (K-5), Brentwood Middle School (6-8), and Brentwood High School (9-12). Student outcomes are well above state averages, with a 95.4% Annual Performance Report score under Missouri's MSIP 6 accountability system (highest designation, "Accredited with Distinction"), 79% postsecondary program enrollment among 2026 graduates, and $17 million in graduate scholarships since 2020.

The district's service portfolio extends beyond standard academics to include career and technical education (via South Tech High School partnership covering automotive technology, health sciences, HVAC, and 20+ other programs), special education (via Special School District of St. Louis County), gifted education including the regional PEGS program, multilingual learner support (13 world languages represented), and a Parents as Teachers birth-to-K program. Instructional and operational technology is built on third-party platforms rather than proprietary systems: Canvas LMS, Infinite Campus SIS, Clever SSO, Finalsite website platform, ParentSquare communications, Scoir college/career readiness, and Frontline/Applitrack HR. The district is introducing an AI Literacy Program and a Personal Device-Free Policy aligned with Missouri Senate Bill 68.

As a political subdivision of the State of Missouri governed by a seven-member elected Board of Education, Brentwood's revenue is primarily sourced from Missouri Department of Elementary and Secondary Education funding based on enrollment and performance, supplemented by local property tax, preschool tuition, non-resident tuition for grades 6-12, and subscription-based Right At School before/after care fees ($87–$305/month). The district employs 202 staff members with a 9:1 student-teacher ratio and 14 years average teacher tenure, and is led by Superintendent Dr. Amy Zielinski. No audited budget or revenue figure is publicly disclosed in the available data.
