Brentwood Schools
Public Schools
In addition to
Brentwood Science Magnet Elementary School (which only zones some residents for kindergarten), the area is served by
Kenter Canyon Elementary School,
Brockton Avenue Elementary School, and Pacific Palisades Elementary School (some areas are zoned jointly to Kenter Canyon and Pacific Palisades), all of which are part of
Los Angeles Unified School District. The area is within
Board District 4.
Locals attending public school usually go to
Paul Revere Charter Middle School, Brentwood's zoned middle school.
The local public high schools are
University High School (named for nearby UCLA, formerly Warren G. Harding High School), and, just outside the neighborhood's boundaries in West Los Angeles,
Palisades Charter High School.
Private Schools
Brentwood is also home to several private schools, including
Brentwood School,
St. Martin of Tours Catholic School, and the
Archer School for Girls, which is located in what was once the historic Eastern Star Home. The old Eastern Star Home can be seen as the setting of the "Mar Vista Rest Home" in the movie Chinatown (1974)
Colleges and Universities
A campus of
Mount St. Mary's College, a Roman Catholic liberal arts college for women, is located in the hills above Brentwood.
