At The Briarwood School, the Middle/Upper Student Council has a crucial role to play. The council aims to develop responsible and proactive students who are active members of the community. It teaches them how to raise funds for school-wide projects, share ideas for school activities and provide feedback on their interests and concerns to the teachers and administration. Additionally, the council helps with community service projects.
We offer a variety of student clubs throughout the school year. Each year, students get the chance to select clubs that match their interests, creating a dynamic environment for them to explore and gain new knowledge and skills. This year, our students are participating in a range of clubs such as Anime, Book, Car and Driver, Chess, Crafting, Creative Writing, Debate, Gaming (for both middle school and upper school), Horticulture/Animal, Investment, LEGO, Music, Photography, Poetry, Sports (for both middle school and upper school), and Yoga.
The Briarwood Yearbook is designed and produced by the students themselves, from generating a theme to publishing the final product. The student editors make sure that the production schedule is followed and all deadlines are met. The yearbook students acquire the skills required to create a high-quality yearbook that captures the essence of the school year for all students and patrons of The Briarwood School. They achieve this through the use of vivid photography, creative design, and compelling copy.The Briarwood Yearbook is designed and produced by the students themselves, from generating a theme to publishing the final product.

Every year I’m amazed at what our students are able to accomplish. Yearbook is a very non-traditional class where senior students are tasked with managing the staff and making sure that the book is finished on time. It’s inspiring to witness the teamwork and dedication that yearbook students develop and the pride they have in producing an amazing product.”
