Staff at Crane Brook Academics

"Our flock is strongest when guided with love, and that is the gift Mrs. Pinkley brings each day." 

—Wingsley 

Ah, my dear young cranes, have you ever wondered who keeps our Crane Brook nest in perfect order? Allow me to introduce you to the marvelous team I fondly call The Nest Keepers. Like watchful guardians, they see to it that all runs smoothly—schedules, messages, and a warm welcome for every scholar who walks through our doors. Truly, they are the steady feathers that hold our flock together. 

Now then, my bright young cranes, even the tallest birds must begin in the nest. At Crane Brook, we are most fortunate to have a remarkable flock I fondly call The Guiding Wings. These devoted teachers lead our youngest learners with patience, care, and creativity—helping each child discover the courage to soar. 

Now, have you noticed a certain spark in our middle-little scholars? A spark of independence, curiosity, and daring! These I proudly call The Rising Fledglings. With feathers strong and spirits eager, they are testing the winds of knowledge, learning to trust themselves, and preparing to soar with confidence. 

Every flock needs those who point the way, and for our Grades 7 and 8, that role belongs to our extraordinary middle school staff. I call them The Horizon Keepers, for they remind our young cranes to look ahead, dream big, and take steady steps toward the future 

Now then, every crane must one day learn to fly not just with courage, but with mastery. That is the noble task of our High School Staff, whom I call The Flight Masters. They sharpen your skills, test your strength, and ensure that when you leave this brook, you will do so with wings strong enough to carry you anywhere. 

Ah, my dear young cranes, while reading and numbers give you the strength to fly, it is creativity, culture, and skill that make your wings truly shine. That is why I am most grateful for our electives teachers, whom I call The Enrichment Wing. From music to art, from language to trade skills, they enrich our flock with beauty, imagination, and the tools for life.
