I am deeply saddened by the news ...the passing of our beloved principal, Dr. Reginald Brown, Jr.
My condolences to his family and friends. May he rest in peace.
Only a man, but what a man! He was definitely a fearless leader, and a true educator. Through his presence, words, and deeds, he encouraged me to know my worth and reach as high and as far as I could dream.
Take your place among the stars 'Mr. Brown'.

They say that we may not always remember what our teachers taught us, but we'll always remember how they made us feel. Dr. Brown made a group of 7th and 8th graders, at Ruggles Elementary School, feel brilliant, proud and accountable for our actions at school and in the community. Several years ago he hosted a large group of students from the class of 1964 at his beautiful home. We were treated royally in an intimate setting, with he and his lovely wife; sharing great food, stories and warm memories. I'll never forget that day, or you, Dr. Brown. GOD BLESS you as you journey to forever.

What a wonderful principal! Reggie turned CVS into an excellent Vocational H. S. The "Real" CVS faculty under his leadership still meet yearly in part because he was excellent and great relationships were made. Teachers were never looking to transfer, because of poor leadership in the principal. He had the courage to be a real leader and great principal. CVS never was nor will it ever be the same without his leadership!
