🎉 Meet Kelly Brooks, our new Assistant Principal at Ray Crowe Elementary!
Please join us in congratulating Kelly Brooks on her new role as Assistant Principal at Ray Crowe Elementary School!
Kelly brings a wealth of educational experience to Clark-Pleasant. She spent 15 years in the classroom, most recently teaching at Center Grove Middle School Central, before joining Ray Crowe in 2021 as the school's MTSS Coach. After helping open the school and serving the Ray Crowe community for three years, Kelly spent the past year as Assistant Principal at Clear Creek Elementary and Summit Elementary in Monroe County Community Schools.
Now, she's excited to return to the school community she already knows and loves.
"My leadership philosophy is rooted in building strong relationships and helping create a positive school culture where students and staff can thrive. I value teamwork and collaboration while celebrating diversity and individuality."
Outside of school, Kelly and her husband, Matt, have been married for 33 years and are the proud parents of three children and grandparents to two grandchildren. She enjoys reading, traveling, and spending time with family and friends.
As she returns to Ray Crowe, Kelly is looking forward to continuing to support students, staff, and families.
"I am very excited to return to Ray Crowe! The strong community and relationships that exist are special and unique. I look forward to being a champion for students and staff as I work to support our community to be our very best."
Welcome back, Kelly! We're excited to have you back at Ray Crowe Elementary. 💙🧡
