Welcome to Bryan Collegiate!

I have been working in education since 1998 and in Bryan ISD since 2003. I am passionate about working with all stakeholders in promoting high levels of learning for students through the development of strong instruction and relationships. I am committed to making each individual feel valued; using data to drive decision-making; effective communication; and being planned, prepared, and intentional every single day.

Having the opportunity to serve the Bryan Collegiate High School community is a true honor. Bryan Collegiate High School is one of more than 200 TEA designated Early College High Schools. At Bryan Collegiate High School, our mission is to provide students a supportive academic environment enabling all students to earn up to sixty college credit hours by the time our students graduate high school.

Our vision is that every student, especially those traditionally under-represented in higher education, receives a strong educational foundation and is prepared for success in a post–secondary environment. We believe that by working with families, higher education and community partners, students will not only succeed within our curriculum, but will form a strong personal vision as they develop into life-long learners.

BCHS is currently partnered with Blinn College and Texas A&M University.  Both of these institutes of higher education have committed time and resources to helping students at Bryan Collegiate become academically successful, earn college credit and successfully transition to an institute of higher education. Currently, students take all of their dual credit courses with Blinn College. Texas A&M provides tutors/mentors, our annual graduation venue and additional staff to help students enrolled at BCHS.

Again this year, US News and World Report recognized Bryan Collegiate High School as one of the top schools in the nation.  We continue to strive for excellence and I look forward to helping your student strive for excellence as well.
