[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure why someone on DCUM keeps suggesting Brooksfield is about to close. It is untrue. School says it is not closing. Actively looking for new students next year. My guess is that someone whose DC was not accepted is axe grinding. [/quote] Nobody said Brooksfield is about to close, Francis. The facts are: (i) they have to vacate their current premises by August 31 of next year; and (ii) it takes a lot of time and effort to find a new place and get it ready before the start of the new school year. It's not impossible and I'm sure you're right that they are actively looking for new students. I also know (our child attended Brooksfield several years back and I'm still on their mailing list) that several families are trying to help find the school find a new location. I hope they are successful because our family had a good experience and I wish B'field all the best for many years to come. But any parent who is considering the school as a place for their child needs to take their current situation and potential risks into account. Don't just rely on the fact that the school is continuing to look for new students. Ask questions about the status of their campus search. And apply to other schools. If Brooksfield can't tell you that they definitively have a campus facility final (i.e., a signed lease agreement) and have a plan for getting classrooms ready in time for September, by the time you need to make a decision and put down a deposit, think very carefully.
