Directors of Fundraising:
Roxy
[email protected]
Roxy has been involved with the PTA for a few years now, and she absolutely loves it—especially seeing her kids’ faces light up when she shows up for their events. One of her favorite things is hearing “Ani’s mom!” or “Zoe’s mom!” echo down the hallways. She's currently serving as the fundraising lead and loves finding creative ways to support our school community. She finds it to be a joy to serve and be part of something that makes a difference for all our kids!
