Freebrook is a newly established independent school housed inside a 3 story mansion located in Bedford Stuyvesant. In these times of uncertainty, The Brooklyn Good Guys and Apt No.7 recognize the need to look back to the past and search for what was done right, to analyze the quality in our past as guidance for moving forward. With its first campus based in a house built in 1914, Freebrook is already versed in the art of "Re:Purpose".
