Mrs. Barnes

  • Greetings Brashear Families, 

    My name is Sonja L. Barnes, and I am the proud principal of Jimmie Tyler Brashear Elementary. The 2024-2025 school year will mark my 9th year of service to the children at Brashear. I graduated from Texas Tech University with a Bachelor's in Business Administration. I eventually decided to utilize my skills to educate elementary students in Dallas ISD. My love for teaching led me to further enhance my leadership skills by pursuing an educational leadership degree from the University of North Texas. I have been married to a fellow educator for 28 years, and we have three beautiful children who all attended Â鶹Çøschools. In my free time, I enjoy reading, traveling, and taking various workout classes at the gym.

    I welcome you to our school, where we believe in educating the whole child. We build confident leaders, skilled readers, and strong mathematicians. Thank you for partnering with us. We look forward to making dreams come true for your children.

    Educationally yours,

    Sonja L. Barnes, Principal
