Letter From the Principal

Welcome to Brownfields Elementary Magnet School!

As principal of Brownfields Elementary Magnet School, it is my pleasure to welcome everyone back for another great year at Brownfields.  It is a privilege for me to be part of the Brownfields community.  The responsibility of educating Brownfields’ children is awesome, but partnering together we can meet this challenge with success for all students.

We are excited to have students back in our classrooms and hallways, filling them with energy and enthusiasm for learning.  It is our mission to help every child feel welcomed, connected, and a part of our Brownfields family.  Additionally, we strive to challenge each student to grow in his or her academic abilities, promoting a safe environment for children to also grow emotionally and physically.

Brownfields is a wonderful learning community, with committed and highly qualified staff.  At Brownfields students are exposed to a rich and rigorous curriculum.  In addition to academic learning, the staff at Brownfields are committed to fostering an environment that creates responsible citizens in our school and community.  Our teachers utilize research-based best practices and analyze academic data to determine current skill levels and to set goals for growth and improvement. In addition, we have partnered with Kids Orchestra, Manship Theatre, and The Arts Council to provide a rich range of services for our children.  Not only do we serve students in our community, but we also serve students in the parish enrolled in our gifted and talented program.

I hope that you will be involved at Brownfields in any way that you can, whether volunteering in the classroom, chaperoning on a field trip, fundraising, and participating in PTO (Parent/Teacher Organization).

I am honored to serve as the principal of Brownfields Elementary Magnet School.  It is truly a privilege to be part of a community where parents, teachers, and students care for each other and strive to build positive relationships that support academic and social growth.  Please feel free to contact me at jcox@ebrschools.org or at 225.775.3527.

Once again, welcome back!  I look forward to serving students, parents, staff and community members as principal of Brownfields Elementary this year as we operate as ONE TEAM~ONE MISSION.  Let’s make it another great year at Brownfields together!
​
Sincerely,
Jo E. Cox
Principal
