Congratulations to Brookwood's Robert Nelson, as he was chosen as an Emerson Scholar for the 2008 Interlochen Arts Camp. He is one of 52 musicians that were awarded this merit-based, full-tuition (over 6,000)scholarship to the camp.

On Saturday, March 29, 2008, the Brookwood Science Olympiad Team claimed its first ever state title. Our team finished with a score 136 points, averaging fifth place in all the events. In an extremely competitive field containing at least 3 math and science magnet schools, 6 private schools, and Parkview, the five time defending state champs, we finished 52 points ahead of the second place. The complete dominance was evident as we earned medals an amazing 12 times in 23 events, while competing against a total of 30 schools. By finishing 1st in the state we won the right to represent Georgia at the National Science Olympiad at George Washington University in Washington, DC on May 30-31, 2008.
