The Exploratory program has become an annual tradition at the middle school and helps to foster positive relationships between the students and staff . The teachers get to know students that they may not have in class while the students get to see the teachers from a different perspective . The students are often surprised to discover that they share many of the same interests and talents with the adults in the building ! Exploratory is just one of the many traditions that helps to make Brentwood Middle School such a special place !
