Brazosport ISD is excited to shine the spotlight on Brenda Charles and John Long as this month’s April 2024 Spotlight Educators.
The purpose of the BISD Educator Spotlight Award is to recognize outstanding teachers across our district. These are teachers who go above and beyond for not only students but for their co-workers, as well. They are knocking instruction out of the park, they are collaborative team members, and they support all learners. These teachers lift up their co-workers and students, and their overall performance is spectacular!
Brenda Charles from Madge Griffith Elementary - 2nd Grade Teacher
Mrs. Charles’ dedication and commitment to her students goes above and beyond. This year she has served as her grade level team leader. Her willingness to take on the role and leadership qualities demonstrated, set her apart from the rest. Mrs. Charles has also served as a mentor this year and has played a major role in the success of her apprentice. She is the type of teacher who can fly under the radar as a great teacher but deserves to shine in the spotlight because we need more teachers like her. Students thrive and are motivated in Mrs. Charles’ class and she celebrates their success as if they were her own children. Mrs. Charles is a team player, committed to the success of her students, and we want her to know that SHE MATTERS.
John Long from Brazosport High School - History Teacher & Campus Content Specialist
Mr. Long’s leadership at Brazosport High School has had a tremendous impact on the campus. He has revitalized the Academic UIL operations on campus and has served as a teacher role model to his department. John is an amazing person and wonderful teammate. It’s been a blessing to have him at Brazosport. Mr. Long is very passionate about everything that he does for students!
Congratulations to Brenda and John for their well-deserved recognition as BISD Spotlight Educators!
