Brenden Perry is well on his way to a stellar career in education. He is currently vice principal of West End High School and one of less than 4,000 teachers in Alabama who have obtained National Board Certification in Literacy: Reading-Language Arts/Early and Middle Childhood. He holds a bachelor’s degree in elementary education and a master’s degree in elementary education and instructional leadership from Jacksonville State University. Before accepting his current position at West End, he was a classroom teacher at both Springville Elementary School and John S. Jones Elementary School. Brenden credits the education, experiences, and exposure he received at Gadsden City with giving him the tools he needed to succeed academically and professionally.

If you know a successful Gadsden City alumnus who is thriving somewhere around the world, we would love to include them in the Our Titan Family is Going Places campaign.

They can upload a short video (less than two minutes) and a photo here. The video should be an introduction of themselves, a synopsis of what they do in their career, and the coolest work-related experience they’ve had so far.

Make sure the video is between :30 and 2 minutes. The photo should be of just them with a background that reflects what they are doing in their career. They should be sure to use their name (first and last) as the file name for the photo and the video.
Along with the photo and video, they’ll need to complete the short survey here.
