Mr. Brian Smith

Greetings Bennett Ranch Families, 

 
My name is Brian Smith, and I am your Executive Principal for the Firebird Nation Campus.  I am excited to welcome our Bennett Ranch Bulls to the Firebird Nation Campus and look forward to developing and creating new authentic learning experiences to help all of our students follow their pathway to success.  This is my 19th year in District 49.  I began my career as a Science Teacher at Falcon High School where I taught Chemistry and Advanced Placement Chemistry.  I then was an Assistant Principal at Skyview Middle School before coming to Falcon Middle School as Principal, where I have been the past 8 years.  
 
Falcon Middle School and Bennett Ranch Elementary School are great places for students, staff, parents, and community members. We want everyone to be involved in our schools! It is exciting for me to be in such a close-knit community where everyone values the education that we provide our children. I am excited to be your Executive Principal and will work hard to see that we increase our student achievement, promote the Firebird spirit, and involve community in all aspects of our school. Please do not hesitate to contact my office should you have any questions or concerns. I also welcome you to come in and meet with me at any point so we can work together to take our campus to the next level of excellence.
 
Sincerely,
Brian Smith
Executive Principal - Firebird Nation Campus

As principal of Bennett Ranch Elementary, I can't wait to partner with parents, and build relationships with staff, students, and the community!

I am bringing more than 20 years of experience in education to this leadership position. My background includes teaching kindergarten through fourth grades in Arizona before relocating to Colorado to teach reading and English skills to elementary students.  After serving as the Coordinator for English Language Development in District 49, I spent the last two years as an assistant principal at Rocky Mountain Classical Academy.

My husband and I have been married for over 20 years, and we have two children.  In my free time, I enjoy outdoor activities, playing cards, and watching movies.

As the Dean of Students for Bennett Ranch Elementary School, I am honored to play my part in unlocking the possibilities and potential for each and every child.  Being involved in the process from the ground floor allows us to construct a culture and learning environment that will build firm foundations and prepare students for a future filled with success.

This is my 19th year in education, and I have been blessed that all of my experience has occurred in District 49.  At Springs Ranch Elementary, I truly developed an appreciation for the elementary spectrum by teaching fifth, first, second, and third grades in addition to serving as a technology specialist for one year.  For five years, I was a K-5 Technology Specialist for all the students at Meridian Ranch Elementary.  This will be my third year as the Dean of Students at Bennett Ranch, which is genuinely a great place for our kids! 

An interesting fact about me is that my elementary school mascot was also a Bull, and it feels like coming home!  I can't wait to meet more of the community, parents, and students of Bennett Ranch Elementary School, and I look forward to another fantastic school year.
