Test

Brewster's student body represents a dynamic mix of learners and thinkers. Athletes. Artists. Musicians. Math wizards. Lovers of science and poetry. Lovers of nature. Our 350 students come from two dozen states and more than 20 countries. They come from all parts of the socioeconomic spectrum and from a range of civic, religious, and cultural backgrounds.

All of that diversity enriches Brewster's academic community—one that values individual differences. Here, students work together and challenge and support each other—in our community you will find the capacity and opportunity to learn from other people like and not like you.

OUR VALUES

Who We Are

At Brewster, we cultivate competencies and qualities of character that will serve our students in the larger world and transform them into self-aware, capable adults who are committed to that which is larger than the self. It is our hope that Brewster graduates will engage in purposeful work with care, curiosity, and creativity, becoming role models within their communities, inspiring by example and uplifting others to see their own potential for positive impact.

Community Core Values

The way we engage each other as community members is a reflection of what we value. We believe that Brewster will be better because of me and I will be better because of Brewster. This principle is the foundation of our four community core values: RESPECT, RESPONSIBILITY, INDEPENDENCE, and INTERDEPENDENCE.

In practice…

We are RESPECTFUL. We strive to treat ourselves and others with unconditional positive regard, aiming to create an inclusive community of belonging in which all feel welcome, known, and valued. We believe in the limitless potential for positive growth in all people, and see mistakes as opportunities for learning.

We are RESPONSIBLE. We aspire to always do the hard, right thing. We act with integrity, in ways that earn and maintain trust, recognizing this as a foundation for the positive relationships that build a healthy community.

We are INDEPENDENT. We have the courage to bring our full selves to a community that believes great minds do not think alike. We stubbornly pursue growth as individuals, taking ownership and accountability for our actions, goals, and success.

We are INTERDEPENDENT. We find joy through shared experiences and accomplishments. We seek to put our own interests and talents to use, not just for ourselves, but for the betterment of others. We believe that each individual shares responsibility for the success of others.
