Brent International School is an international co-educational day and boarding school associated with the Episcopal Church in the Philippines. It has campuses in different locations throughout the Philippines: Brent School Manila in Brgy. Mamplasan, Biñan (Main Campus); Brent School Baguio, and Brent School Subic.
Brent International School was founded in Baguio, in 1909 by Charles Henry Brent, Missionary Bishop in the Philippines for the Protestant Episcopal Church of United States.
Brent Baguio was previously the main campus of Brent, founded in 1909 by Charles Henry Brent. A number of similar boarding schools were established by Episcopal clerics across the United States, including in Brent's home state of Massachusetts, including the so-called Saint Grottlesex schools, based upon the English public school model. Spread across thirty hectares of forested land, the Baguio campus houses buildings that survived World War II and the 1990 Luzon earthquake. In 2001, the Brent Baguio campus was given the status of National Historical Site by the Philippine Historical Commission. In 2009, Brent Baguio celebrated their centennial. Brent Baguio is the only campus which has boarding facilities; the other 2 campuses are day schools only. Coordinates: 16°24′54″N 120°36′16″E / 16.415137°N 120.604543°E
