Principal's Message

apple on books
Hello Arnone Students and Families  
 
I would like to take a moment to introduce myself.  My name is Carrie Copp and I am the Principal of the Arnone School. I could not be more thrilled to lead a school that has by all accounts the best students, faculty and families around. 
 
I wanted to share a bit about myself:
I have sat in several different seats but have spent most of my time at Brockton High School and most recently as the Associate Principal for Curriculum and Instruction. I am a very proud example of all that the Brockton Public Schools has to offer.
 
I attended kindergarten at the Lincoln School, elementary at the Downey, junior high at North, and high school at BHS. I graduated in 1990 and came back to teach at the high school in 1995.  I am married to a fellow BHS graduate and together Rich and I live in Mansfield with our three children. Charlotte, Claire and Richie. It is the privilege of a lifetime to be their mother.   
 
There is nothing I take more serious than educating the children of Brockton.  It has always been my privilege to serve the families of the city.  As we embark on this journey together, I look forward to getting to know each of you but before that I want to share a few of the things I know to be true.   
·      Our greatest strength is our ability to build relationships.  It is paramount to our work as educators.   
·      There is nothing our students cannot do if we support them and provide them the resources they need for success. 
·      Communication is vital. I will communicate with you openly and directly.   
·      Student success and well-being must be at the center of every decision.  
·      We will model for our children the behavior we want to see. 
·      We will show up every day bringing the best versions of ourselves.   
 
Sincerely,
Mrs. Copp
