The school went into a temporary lockdown with a malfunction of our RAVE System signaling an active shooter. The police responded within seconds and discovered it was a malfunction. All students and staff are safe and there was NO active shooter. We are in contact with the company that provides our system to explain and correct.

The 2024 Academic Awards Ceremony for Sophomores and Juniors is on May 17th at 12:30pm in the Brookland High School Auditorium. Students who are receiving an academic award were given an invitation to attend the ceremony during English classes earlier this week. Only those students who received an invitation, along with their family members, will attend the ceremony. If a student received an invitation, but will not be attending school on May 17th, they will need to arrive at the auditorium by 12pm to be seated. We are looking forward to celebrating the academic accomplishments of these students!
