We are so so proud !
Congrats Jessi!
Jessi has supported so many functions of the PTA this year all while getting being a working mom and college student herself. Jessi was the chairman of our biggest fundraiser of the year which had a record high in fundraising for our school. She has been a wonderful liaison in the school and bringing teachers input and requests to meetings of what she's heard from them throughout the school days. She was a huge asset and volunteer in putting on a new fundraiser this year which had a major focus on family involvement. She's always the first to speak up for families in need and she embodies the values of considering everyone's feelings and making sure we aspire
to our goal of helping EVERY child. Jessi works tirelessly for our school and PTA. She always keeps the PTA mission at the forefront of her actions. She never misses an activity. Jessi is truly a superhero volunteer. Jessi is selfless in the amount of
time and energy she puts in to our school. When something needs done, she does it. If someone is falling short on their tasks, she silently steps in and assists. She doesn’t ask for recognition or complain. 100% team player and encouraging to others. I love working with her on our PTA board, she is funny and humble and honest. Can’t be beat!
04/17/2023
We are SO excited to share that our very own PTA Vice President, Jessica Foss, is Volunteer Of the Year!
Anyone who is lucky enough to of worked along side her in our school, knows just how deserving she is of this recognition !
We are so proud Jess, way to go !!!! 🎉🎉
