In the Spring of 2019, the London City School District published its Portrait of a Graduate, which highlights the key skills and attitudes necessary for district graduates to have success in college and careers. Our district uses the Portrait of a Graduate to help design meaningful teaching and learning experiences for our students. Similarly, during the Spring of 2022, the London City School District worked to identify and publish the most valued skills and dispositions that educators should demonstrate daily to help prepare our students to be future-ready. These skills include:
Effective Communication,
Focused on Relationship-Building,
Being Flexible and Adaptable,
Demonstrating High Integrity; and,
Being a role model for Life-Long Learning.
Nancy Brooks exemplifies what it means to be an educator devoted to student success. As a paraprofessional at London High School, she goes above and beyond in her role as coordinator of the Triple A (Academic Attendance Assistance) Program. The Triple A program is a vital initiative designed to support students in their academic progress, attendance, and overall well-being.
When a student begins to struggle academically, miss classes, or face personal challenges, Nancy is often the first to step in. She collaborates with teachers to identify concerns early, then works directly with at-risk students to provide encouragement, guidance, and consistent follow-up. Her compassion, dedication, and steady presence help students overcome obstacles and stay on track toward their goals.
Nancy’s unique ability to connect with students and provide meaningful, individualized support has made her an invaluable member of the London High School community. Through her patience, empathy, and unwavering commitment, she truly embodies the heart and spirit of an exceptional educator.
Mrs. Brooks was recognized during the November 2025 Regular Board of Education meeting for substantially demonstrating the district’s Portrait of an Educator. Congratulations, Mrs. Brooks!
