Brookfield High School Athletic Update
September 12, 2025
Scoreboard Update
Great news — our scoreboard is up and running again! A technician from Northeast Scoreboard was able to get it working. While it’s not in the best condition, we’re hopeful it will hold up until funding is secured for a replacement.
Michaels Cup Award Recognition
A huge congratulations to our Athletic Advisory and the entire Athletic Department! Brookfield High School has once again been recognized by the CIAC as a Michaels Jewelers Achievement Cup Award Winner.
This award is given to schools that exemplify the CIAC Class Act program by promoting positive sportsmanship, empowering students to lead, and supporting their community through service. We are proud to be recognized for the outstanding work of our student-athletes, staff, and community.
