Assistant Principal Mrs. Patricia Knox


Mrs. Knox has been working with the Attleboro school district for 29 years. She graduated from Bridgewater State College and earned her M.E.D. She also graduated from the University of Hartford with her Bachelor of Science Degree in Mathematics. She wanted  to work in a school setting  because she wanted to motivate and encourage students to learn academics  in a positive way.

The best part about her job is seeing the smiles on the faces of the Brennan students everyday. Her special interests include baseball, football, track, volleyball, walking, swimming, tennis, reading, and cooking.
