Principal's Message
Principal Cooper brings years of building leadership and a passion for student success, driving excellence and innovation throughout our school building. Go Broncos!
Dear Brinckerhoff,
It is with great pride and excitement that I welcome you to our school community! As principal, I am honored to lead a building filled with dedicated educators, enthusiastic students, and supportive families. Together, we work to create a positive, engaging, and academically enriching environment where every child can thrive.
I have a deep passion for literacy instruction and am committed to fostering strong reading and writing skills in all our students. I also believe in the power of growth in mathematics—helping each child build confidence as a problem solver and critical thinker. Beyond academics, I’m equally focused on making our school a fun, safe, and welcoming place where students love to learn and feel a strong sense of belonging.
Clear and open communication is one of my core values. I strive to maintain strong partnerships with staff, families, and all stakeholders, because I believe that student success grows from meaningful collaboration and shared commitment.
Thank you for visiting our website and for your continued support of our school. I look forward to a fantastic school year filled with learning, laughter, and growth!
Warm regards,
Domonique Cooper
Principal, Brinkerhoff Elementary School
