It serves 110 residents and 93 day program participants (our Citizens) who have a wide variety of disabilities. Brookwood is funded entirely by the private sector, relying on tuition, operating contributions (from individuals, foundations, corporations, and religious organizations), and revenue derived from the sales of crafts and horticultural products produced by Brookwood Citizens, and revenue from a Cafe in which Citizens serve as waitstaff. Brookwood teaches both life skills and vocational skills so that its Citizens can develop their individual talents to the maximum extent possible and gain a sense of self worth. Operating donations support scholarships, salaries of teachers in the various programs, staff development, and special projects related to the care of Citizens. Donations for endowments and for new facilities and program development are also solicited from the private sector. 7881537 506730 7144155 The Briarwood School is a school for children with learning disabilities. It serves 323 children in grades K through 12 who have a wide variety of learning disabilities. The majority of the operating funds are received through monthly tuitions, which are based on a "break-even" concept. That is, tuitions should cover operating costs such as teaching and administrative salaries, supplies, and the operating and maintenance expense of the facilities. All disbursements are made to vendors offering the best price for the product or service needed. Teachers are paid based on experience and background. Any child with a learning disability is eligible for enrollment. Donations are used to provide scholarships, equipment, and for building replacement and expansion. 20291462 true true false false false false false false true true true false false false true false true false true false false false false false true false false true true true false false false false false false false false false true false true false false false true false false false false false true 37 0 true 763 true true true false false false false true true false 0 false false false true false false false false false false X 13 10 true false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false X Troy Jasmin 2813752185 1752 FM 1489 Brookshire TX 77423 Mr Stephen C Beasley Chair 6.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mr David R Streit Vice Chair 4.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Mrs Barbara Bellati Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mr Michael Hall Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mr John Kiltz Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mrs Dea L Larson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mrs Peggy McGaughy Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mr John Scales Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mr J Scott Thompson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mr Brad Tucker Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mr Thomas H Wilson Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Mrs Vivian Shudde Executive Direc 50.00 0.00 X X 165380 0 22207 Mrs Yvonne Streit E.D.
