Our faculty at Brook Hill prepares students to excel academically and study at the college and university level. We emphasize three pillars: Education, Potential, and Character.

“All of our athletic teams at Brook Hill are staffed with experienced, full-time coaches who promote Christ-like character, academic excellence, and provide an environment that fosters championship athletics. At Brook Hill, we are committed to the success of our student athletes on and off the playing field. Because we are in Texas, we love football.

Brook Hill’s Boarding Students love the Arts
Some students at our Christian boarding school in Texas have a special talent in music – vocal or instrumental. Others are gifted in the visual arts, and can draw, paint and sculpt. And there are still others whose talents lie in the dramatic arts, on the stage or in the tech booth. But wherever their personal talents are focused, our goal as Christian educators is to inspire in our students a passion for their respective art form that will motivate them to stretch their creative abilities and to excel in their art in a way that will honor our Maker and His creative genius.
Brook Hill is one of the most diverse boarding schools in Texas
At The Brook Hill School, students build meaningful friendships with an international community. Students hail from over 25 different countries and about 15% of our school is international. Through these relationships, students at our boarding school experience a rich variety of culture that prepares them to live and work in the global economy. Our admissions team travels across the globe in search of the best students from all different countries and works to admit a variety of students from every race, color, national & ethnic origin.
