The high school's test scores are generally below the state average, with only 10th grade Social Studies meeting the state benchmark.

Chronic absenteeism is also a concern, with Brookwood High having a higher rate of 6.8% compared to Norwalk-Ontario-Wilton Elementary's 4.0%. Addressing these issues, along with improving academic performance, could be key focus areas for the district to enhance educational outcomes for its students.
