He is a certified teacher holding a professional license for teaching General Education (4th-8th) and Special Education (EC-12). This is Mr. Ellett’s third year with Brownwood ISD.  Mr. Ellett is a dedicated teacher and fantastic individual that influences the culture at BHS. He works diligently to ensure Life Academic Students are a part of the BHS community.

His love for education is evident as he works to improve the educational development prospects of each student while building and maintaining strong relationships.
Brownwood ISD is grateful to have teachers like Mr. Ellett who go above and beyond to promote a positive and inclusive culture on their campus while helping students overcome their challenges and find success.

 

The Staff Spotlight honoree is Jerry O’Neal. Mr. O’Neal is the head of the BISD Maintenance Department. With 12 years of maintenance/custodial experience he began work with BISD in 2017 as a maintenance worker. His dedication to detail and quality of his work led him to his current position supervising the department.
Mr. O’Neal is organized, efficient, detailed, and has a great relationship with his co-workers. His crew is always willing to go above and beyond to make sure our facilities are ready each day for our students. During the winter storm blast, Mr. O’Neal and his crew were on each campus taking care of emergencies which limited the amount of damage incurred.

They simply took care of business so we could get our students back on campus without any further delay.

Mr. O’Neal is an invaluable asset and Brownwood ISD is fortunate to have a person with his abilities leading our Maintenance Department.
