Mobley to serve as executive director of CCS Education Foundation

The Carrollton City Schools Board of Education approved Brooke Mobley to serve as the next executive director of the Carrollton City Schools Education Foundation at the board meeting Tuesday night. She will succeed Kristen Gill, who has decided to step away from her role to dedicate more time to her family.

Brooke Mobley, a 2001 Carrollton High alumna, is deeply rooted in the Carrollton community. She earned her bachelor’s degree from the University of West Georgia and later worked there as an admissions counselor before shifting into the nonprofit sector.

In her most recent role as the executive director of Partners Advancing Student Success (PASS), a nonprofit committed to improving student outcomes through mentorship, advocacy and community partnerships, Mobley oversaw a period of remarkable growth. Under her direction, PASS not only reached more students but also boasted an impressive 97.5% graduation rate and garnered record-breaking financial support.

Demonstrating passion for her community, she has served on numerous boards and committees for nonprofit organizations, including the Tanner Medical Foundation’s Magnolia Ball, the United Methodist Children’s Home, the Carroll County Child Advocacy Center (CCCAC), Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA), and PTO organizations at local school systems. 

Raising third-generation Trojans, Mobley understands the profound impact of investing in educational experiences. She and her husband, Tim, have three children currently attending Carrollton City Schools. 

“It is an incredible honor to serve as the new executive director of the CCS Education Foundation. As both an alum and a parent, I am invested in the success of our schools and community,” said Mobley. “The Trojan Nation has always been a source of pride for me, and I look forward to building on the strong legacy of this organization and working together to create even more opportunities for our students and educators.”

Mobley is eager to begin her work with the foundation, following in the footsteps of Kristen Gill, who has led the foundation since 2022. During her tenure, Gill and the foundation board nearly doubled net assets by increasing funds through corporate donations, growing the number of endowed funds, and championing initiatives, including the expansion of field trip opportunities for students. 

“Serving this foundation for the past three years has been incredibly rewarding. It’s amazing to see the generosity of our community and alumni come to life in such meaningful ways to support the teachers and students in our schools,” said Gill. “The strong leadership and shared vision among our board of directors, school administrators, and the board of education truly makes an impact. We’re lucky to have such a dedicated team behind this foundation’s success.”

Superintendent Dr. Mark Albertus expressed his appreciation for Gill’s contributions and said he looks forward to continued success under Mobley’s direction.

“Kristen Gill has done an excellent job laying the groundwork for the foundation’s future success,” he said. “As she steps away to focus on family, we’re excited to welcome Brooke Mobley to the team, bringing valuable nonprofit experience and strong community ties to the role. Her leadership will build on our momentum and help us continue meeting the needs of our students.”

Mobley will assume her role as executive director of the Carrollton City Schools Education Foundation in July.
