Congratulations Ms. Alex Lann
Alex started her life long learning quest in the Athens City System, graduating from Athens High School in 2007. She continued her education and graduated from Athens State University. She joined the Brookhill family immediately upon graduating. This year will be her fifth year to grow as a learner at Brookhill Elementary School. Building a strong classroom family is essential to growing as learners together. She also enjoys traveling, and participating in a variety of professional development during the summer.

Car Rider Line
- Please enter the school campus on the drive next to the tree line as you do in the afternoons. This is to prevent traffic from backing up on Brookhill Drive when we have buses unloading in the morning.
- Also, we have had an increase in morning tardies. The warning bell rings at 7:45 and 7:48 your student is considered tardy. Our instruction begins first thing at 7:48 & we do not want your child to miss any instruction that is taking place.
Weather
Also if there has been any changes to your contact information (phone number, address, email, etc) please come by the front office so we can ensure we have correct information to contact you in the event of emergency closings or other communication purposes.
