She and her brother stood out like dandelions on a putting green among the varsity class of Brierbrook Private School. They didn’t have a single piece of designer Nike or Calvin Klein clothing between them.

Affluent Private High School in the Buffalo Area.

History

In 1873, Brierbrook High School was incorporated by the State of New York as the Academic Department of Brierbrook University as an all-boys boarding school.

In 1910, the boarding portion of the school was closed, and it was expanded for co-ed education in 1962. By September 1970 it became the largest private high school in Western New York serving 325 students.
