Assistant Principal Ashley Pondrom
I’m Ashley Pondrom and I am thrilled to be one of your assistant principals! I’ve been a proud member of the Brentfield community for 16 years, starting my journey here as a PE teacher for nine years, then teaching 5th grade for five years. Before becoming a Bobcat, I gained valuable experience at Forestridge Elementary, also within Richardson ISD. My husband, Jason, and I are the proud parents of three wonderful children: Drew, Riley, and Blake.
I truly love this community, our incredible students, and our amazing staff. I am committed to fostering a supportive atmosphere where every student and every staff member feels valued, challenged, and empowered to reach their full potential. It’s a privilege to work alongside such wonderful people and to be an active participant in an environment that consistently inspires growth and collaboration.

I’m a proud Richardson ISD graduate and former Pacesetter Captain at JJ Pearce. My degree is in Interdisciplinary Studies from Texas A&M University and last school year I completed my master’s degree in Educational Leadership at Dallas Baptist University.
I’m passionate about student growth, building meaningful connections with students, and empowering both children and adults to learn, grow, and thrive. I believe every individual deserves to be supported and challenged to be the best they can be.
