This trial studies how well spectroscopic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) guided proton therapy works in assessing metabolic change in pediatric patients with brain tumors. The non-invasive imaging, such as spectroscopic MRI may help to map the differences in tumor metabolism compared to healthy tissue without injection of any contrast agent.

Inclusion Criteria:
* Pathologically diagnosed high-grade glioma (World Health Organization \[WHO\] grade 3-4). Patients with a radiographically diagnosed high-grade glioma may enroll prior to pathologic confirmation, but would be removed from study if pathology did not confirm the diagnosis of high-grade glioma.
* Primary tumor located within the supratentorial brain.
* Recommended to receive definitive radiation therapy.
* Able to receive MRI scans.
* Both males and females, and members of all races and ethnic groups are eligible for this trial.
Exclusion Criteria:
* Patients with pacemakers, non-titanium aneurysm clips, neurostimulators, cochlear implants, non-titanium metal in ocular structures, or other incompatible implants which makes MRI safety an issue are excluded.
* Patients that have any significant medical illnesses that in the investigator's opinion cannot be adequately tolerate MRI scan are excluded.
* Pathology demonstrated low-grade glioma or other benign or non-invasive brain tumor.
