Dr. Hooker

Panther Podcast

Welcome back to another episode of Panther Podcast! Episode 14 features host Dr. Henderson going down the Ole Brook memory lane that has led to present day values with his guest, Dr. Vernell Hooker. Hooker is the former Brookhaven School District Board President, alum of the district and owner of Antecho Salon. Henderson and Hooker discuss how being alumni of the Brookhaven School District have shaped their lives and the importance of keeping the standard and tradition going. Their “team” mentality has helped them achieve huge milestones like achieving the “B” rating for the entire school district with the help of everyone’s (faculty, administration, and student) effort and their everyday goals of keeping the “students” a priority. They’re aware of the “impact” they’re making on today’s students and want to make sure that all students (present and future) are equipped to graduate and ready for life after graduation.

About Us

The Brookhaven School District, where we are “Equipping Students Today for Tomorrow’s Opportunities”, strives year after year to complete a child’s education with the highest of standards. An education that begins with excellent facilities throughout its seven-school system. Many renovations at all of the schools have taken place over the years, including a $13 million renovation and expansion project at Brookhaven High School in 2001. The high school, originally built in 1938, is recognized by the Mississippi Department of Archives as true to its Art Deco design and houses one of the most advanced sound and lighting systems of any high school auditorium in Mississippi.
