More than just a school, Brookland is a caring community of educators. Brookland's staff is constantly striving to excellency. With Mrs. Pressley at the helm and a team of committed teachers supporting, the students have the best DCPS has to offer.

Brookland Elementary is an Excellent School! The principal, staff and teachers are wonderful, kind and caring. They treat the students as if they were their own children. The principal, Ms. Donna Pressley is outstanding in her position. My two older sons graduated from Brookland and have done very well at their next school. I still have a daughter at Brookland and she is in kindergarten class. I just want to say that Brookland has always felt like family and when you enter their walls, you feel safe and secure. Keep up the good work Brookland - this is a school that's going places!
I am impressed with Brookland for two reasons, I am a former Brookland student myself. My daughter is now a Kindergarten student who is excelling! I am proud of her accomplishments. I am pleased with her teacher. The Principal is a wonderful operator of a well oiled educational machine! Good job Brookland staff, keep up the good work. P.S. My Kindergartener daughter is now reading thanks to Brookland's dedicated teachers!

The teachers at Brookland Elementary School open their hearts to the children and want them to succeed. The school has an open door policy and encourages and welcomes all parents to be involved in their child's learning. The Principal is great! She interacts with all of the children from all grades. I have seen her come into the kindergarten classroom and assist the teachers with the children, by singing 'learning' songs with them both in English and Spanish while the teachers were having a special science competition for the kindergarten students. I can not say that I have seen this type of support, from Principals, in other schools. The children at Brookland Elementary School show great self-esteem, which is cultivated through encouragement and respect for their classmates, the teachers and the Principal. 'It takes a Village to raise a child' and you have that Village at Brookland Elementary School!
