The Brawley School

The school’s mission is to empower students to become compassionate, lifelong learners and global citizens through collaboration and reflection. Leadership is guided by the "RISE" values—Respect, Integrity, Self-management, and Empathy—which are central to decision-making and fostering a sense of belonging. The school aims to inspire a love of learning and a desire to improve the world through inquiry-based education.

The school offers the International Baccalaureate (IB) Middle Years Programme (MYP), a five-year curriculum that begins in grades 6-8 at The Brawley School and continues through grades 9-10 at South Iredell High School. The academic programme for all three grade levels includes Arts, Design, Individuals & Societies, Language Acquisition, Language & Literature, Mathematics, Physical & Health Education, and Sciences.

The school employs specialized staff, including an Exceptional Children teacher and a school counselor, to support student needs. The school also provides access to a school nurse and maintains specific policies and forms to manage student health and well-being.

The Brawley School is a choice school within the Iredell-Statesville School District, requiring an application for admission. The school serves students in grades 6-8, with eligibility determined by the student's traditional middle school attendance zone. The enrollment process includes an open enrollment period, parent informational meetings, and a lottery system to manage placement.

The school operates on a traditional school calendar with a regular school day running from 8:30am to 3:20pm. The daily schedule consists of five instructional blocks, a designated "RISE Time" for announcements, and a lunch period. Students may be dropped off starting at 8:10am and must be picked up by 3:35pm unless participating in after-school activities.

Located at 132 Swift Arrow Drive in Mooresville, North Carolina, the campus includes a media center and library. The school grounds facilitate daily operations such as student drop-off and pick-up, and the facility supports a range of academic and extracurricular activities.

The school offers various activities to engage students beyond the classroom, including a Guitar Club led by the principal. The school also maintains a symphonic band that performs for the school community. These opportunities are designed to connect academics, arts, athletics, and service.
