Its long history gives it a special place in the community. We have several students whose parents and grandparents went to Brown. Parent involvement extends inside and outside the classroom.
Parents also pay for a physical education aide.
Brown's TerraNova test scores are in the high average range, but lower than those of some other nearby schools. We have some families in manufactured homes and we have middle class families in brand new subdivisions. Ted Hunsberger, Elizabeth Lenz and Huffaker elementary schools draw from more uniform populations. Hunsburger teachers often stay with their classes year to year. But the school, which has a new principal, no longer has a grant to teach after-school programs in French, Spanish and Japanese.
