Student Support

My name is Deana Brown. I am so excited for another wonderful year here at Coal Mountain Elementary.  I have worked as a professional school counselor in Forsyth County Schools since 2007.  Prior to transitioning to public education I worked in clinical settings including outpatient, hospitals, and crisis stabilization units.  I have also served as both administrator and faculty member in higher education training future counselors. I am incredibly honored to be trusted with your most precious children and truly enjoy helping each grow and develop into successful and happy individuals.  I am the very proud mother of two fabulous daughters and enjoy spending time with my husband, our menagerie of animals, playing outdoor sports and hanging on the beach.  I am looking forward to a great year!

My name is Brandy Forde. I am so excited to be in my third year on the Mountain. I have 10 years teaching experience in Forsyth County. I have had the unique opportunity to serve in the coaching capacity at two different schools. . My husband and I have been married for eleven years. We have two adorable daughters and a son.

I want to begin by saying that I absolutely LOVE teaching communication within our building.  Communication is a LIFE skill that must be facilitated in order for success to occur in the lives of our students.  I have enjoyed my teaching journey thus far and I am looking forward to partnering with all of you as we continue.  Being able to teach and impact the lives of young children is truly a blessing. My husband is also a teacher in the Forsyth County School System where we both have an invested interest in this wonderful school system.  It is a system that has greatly impacted both of my personal children as they recently graduated from Forsyth County Schools.  I look forward to new challenges and new partnerships with you as we embark on a new school year!

My name is Jessica Wilson and I am looking forward to another awesome year at CMES.  I received my Bachelor’s Degree from Georgia State University as well as my Math and ESOL Endorsement. I also have my Instructional Coaching Endorsement from the state. After graduating college in 2007, I began teaching in Gwinnett County. I have always dreamt of working for the Forsyth County School District, so I decided to finally make the move and I couldn’t be happier.

In my free time I enjoy playing tennis, coaching cheerleading and swimming, hanging out with friends, family and of course my 2 fur babies. I am looking forward to a great school year here at CMES.
