The Gwinnett County Board of Education is moving forward in its search to identify the school district's next superintendent. An essential part of the search process is obtaining feedback from stakeholders, including families, students, staff, and others in the community. We invite you to participate in an online survey to share your thoughts on the qualities you would like to see in the next superintendent. The survey is open through 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, May 16, and is available in English, Spanish, Korean, Chinese, and Vietnamese. Click here to take the Gwinnett Community Superintendent Search Survey.

Brookwood Elementary and our PBIS Team would like to recognize the efforts of our digital learners who, despite the challenges of learning digitally, are rising to the occasion!!! Thank you to these students who are Ready, Respectful, and Responsible online!!!
