Holy Child Spirit Honoree: Brittany Reeser
Brittany (Barnes) Reeser graduated from Mayfield Junior School in 2001 and Mayfield Senior School in 2005. After graduating from Loyola Marymount University in 2009, she became a teacher at Alliance Dr. Olga Mohan High School, a charter school in downtown Los Angeles. Brittany went above and beyond her duty as a teacher, often spending time tutoring and working with her students before and after school and on weekends. While teaching at Alliance, Brittany spoke at Mayfield Senior School on Cornelia Connelly Day, sharing, “It was amazing to reflect back on becoming a teacher and realizing how many of my decisions were made because of what Mayfield instilled in me — valuing family, community, and service.”
Brittany has earned recognition as a dedicated teacher. She was presented with the 2014 Hart Vision Teacher of the Year Award by the California Charter Schools Association and the 2017 George Olmsted Jr. Class of 1924 Prize for Excellence in Secondary School Teaching at Williams College.
Currently, Brittany is the Director of Mathematics at STEM Prep, a Charter Organization consisting of two schools, Crown Prep Academy and Math and Science College Preparatory. Brittany commits her life to making a difference in her students’ lives and inspiring them to believe in themselves and all that they can achieve. She attributes her Holy Child Education for her drive to serve others. She feels strongly about teaching in an environment where she can help those who often get overlooked. Brittany is an enthusiastic, compassionate, and caring young woman who continues to live “Holy Child” each day.
