Message from Dr. Brown:

I am thankful to be a member of a great team here at Alvord ISD.  We are blessed with a great staff, fantastic kids, and a community that supports our schools.  As superintendent my role is to serve as the lead learner of the district, allowing us to make better decisions together. My leadership style is collaborative with a focus on family and team building. Building on strengths, collaboration, communication, information, and time allow us to reach consensus and ownership through the decision making process.

Working with teachers and administrators to engage students in learning is my passion.  We have worked to create a culture where teachers and leaders care for each other, care for our students we serve, and model a positive attitude and great work ethic.  My experience tells me that when those key ingredients are in place wonderful things happen.
