Kindergarten Team

Hi, I’m Mrs. Angel! I’ve been part of the Brookneal Elementary family since 2017 and am thrilled to now be teaching Kindergarten. I love helping my “Kinder babies” learn, grow, and shine each day. When I’m not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our son Ryland, and our three dogs. As a family, we love camping at the lake and making special memories outdoors. 

I am from the Eastern Shore of Virginia and earned my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from Liberty University. I love teaching kindergarten and creating a positive, engaging learning environment for my students. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my dog and cat.

Hi! My name is Emma Thomas, and I've been a part of BES since 2023. I am originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and moved to Virginia a few years ago. I graduated from Liberty University with my bachelors degree in Elementary Education. In my free time, I enjoy spending time with family, figure skating, and spending time outdoors. I am so excited to be back at BES this year!
