Brookfield High School is an Ottawa-Carleton District School Board high school in the Riverside Park neighbourhood of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. It was officially opened in 1962.

The school usually has about a thousand students each year. Like most of the Ottawa schools, it is composite and semestered. It specializes in a French immersion program, and is one of the few schools in Ottawa to offer instruction in Arabic. It also offers English as a Second Language (ESL) classes and German and Spanish as third languages. Brookfield is known for their athletics. They are usually strong in men's Soccer and Hockey, also woman's Rugby.

About 80% of the school's students go on to university after graduation.
