Although she's doing tech work now, I still see her at the high school and she's helped me with so many things. But what I love the most about Mrs. Brumfield is her coaching. She coaches the cross country team and goes above and beyond every single day. She runs every workout with us and makes the hardest runs fun. She brings us snacks, helps us stretch, and pushes us to be the best we can be, all while keeping us healthy. It's because of her that I love running and have gotten better at it. Mrs. B always tells us how proud she is of us and she cares about and builds relationships with every athlete or student who comes her way. She also does an amazing job of coaching the academic team. She knows so much and helps us learn everything we can. When I am with Mrs. B, every practice and every match is fun. She's the reason I love these sports and I couldn't ask for a better coach or a better person than Mrs. Brumfield. Thank you so much for all that you do!"--Anonymous Thank you, Ms. Brumfield, for being such an inspiration to our students in the classroom, in competition, and on the track. You are appreciated.
