Maidu Vice President

Highslide JS

Carolyn Brosnan
This is Carolyn's second year on the Maidu/Excelsior PTC board. She served as Maidu Co-Vice President last year and has coordinated events for PTC and served on other parent/school boards in the past. Like the other board members, she sees how important it is to be involved with the schools and their children's education. She remembers Elaine Arndt speaking at Back To School Night a couple of years ago. Elaine said that participating in your child's education and in PTC can show your child how much you value their education and school. This inspired Carolyn to participate and help as she could. She wants to stay informed as our state and district meet new challenges. While working with the PTC she has enjoyed meeting new people. Their innovative ideas help our schools, teachers, and parents.

Excelsior Co-Vice Presidents

 

Leigh-Ann Reinero
This is Leigh-Ann's second year as the PTC vice president for Excelsior and is happy to be sharing the position this year with Tami Lynch. Realizing how important it is to be connected with her children's school, Leigh-Ann got her feet wet by volunteering in the classroom and helping at many different events held by the school. She has since enjoyed organizing movie nights, Family Karaoke/Guitar Hero nights and the Meet & Greet Game Night at Excelsior for all incoming 3rd graders. She has also handled the distribution of the Wednesday folder announcements for Maidu for the past 5 years and is looking forward to helping out at Excelsior this year. Being involved in her children's eduction, inside the classroom and outside the classroom, has been very rewarding. PTC has been a great way to get to know what is happening in and around the school as well as given her the opportunity to have fun and meet fabulous parents who have the same goals and desires for their children. She looks forward to another great school year.

Tami Lynch
This is Tami's third year on the board and first year as co-VP for Excelsior; she previously held the PTC Secretary position for two years. Tami also continues to coordinate eNews and Excelsior Picture Days and oversee all the various PTC volunteer opportunities. This is Tami's last year on the PTC board as her daughter Madelyn Acklier is in 6th grade. Being part of the PTC is important to Tami because she can be involved in school activities without “bugging” her daughter in the classroom, get to know the teachers and parents and hopefully enhance her daughter’s educational experience during the early years of her life – plus, it’s just downright FUN FUN FUN!
