Hello Ortega Families! This is my first year serving on the PTO board and I'm excited to help where I can. If you received an Otter Town Newsletter recently, that was from me!! I have 2 kids at Ortega (one in 2nd and one in 4th), and I primarily joined the PTO to help give Ortega kids the best possible experiences. I'm looking forward to Ortega having a great 2023-2024 school year!

Hi there! As of the 2022-2023 school year, this is my first year as a PTO Board Member and I am the Co-Chair of Fundraising with my great partner, Amanda Gavin. I have one son currently attending this wonderful school and another coming next year! I am honored to have been nominated for this position and absolutely love being an advocate for the Teachers and Students by helping them get what they need and deserve through fundraising. It is important to me to enrich the teaching experience, along with the learning experience. Our goal is to make Ortega the best school in Pacifica and we could not do this without the generous parents, grandparents and guardians who participate by volunteering their time and making donations when they are able. I look forward to continuing to work with this great PTO team and staying involved in this community. Go Otters!

Hi Ortega families! This is my second year volunteering on the PTO Board. I was part of the auction committee last year and really enjoyed helping pull that all together. I am mom to B. (2nd grade) and W. (1st grade). After learning how many programs are funded by the PTO, I felt it was important to put some of my time into fundraising so we can continue to offer these fun programs and activities for our kids. One of my favorite things about Ortega is its sense of community and I want to help keep that strong. I am looking forward to another great year and many more to come!
