GET TO KNOW YOUR 2022-2023 PTA OFFICERS! We have an incredible team of enthusiastic and talented volunteers this year with many fun and educational events planned, and we would love for you to join us! Lorin Bent, President Lorin is a 2nd year HFES parent of Jack (rising 1st) and Winnie (rising pre-K) and is excited to continue the great work of the PTA while creating new ways for families, staff, and community partners to participate in the PTA's mission - to make every child's potential. She is wife and partner to Geoff (PTA Finance Committee Chair), a community activist, a leader in her faith community, a passionate football fan (go Hokies and Panthers!), a serious home cook, and loves long walks with a good podcast. Henley Schmiedel, Vice President Henley has two students at HFES: McCoy (rising 2nd) and Madelin (rising K). She loved getting involved with the PTA last year and is looking forward to growing a larger and stronger team of parents this year. She is a pediatric nurse and has a passion for elementary age children. She and her husband, Doug, live in the Huntingtowne Farms neighborhood and hope to build a strong connection between community and school. Allison Gnilka, Treasurer Allison is mom to three dual language IB Huntingtowne Farms Foxes: Rosemary (3rd grade), Danielle (2nd grade) and Annabella (1st grade). Allison has been in positions of leadership and regulatory compliance in healthcare for over 20 years, is a native Charlottean and graduate of Charlotte Mecklenburg-Schools. She is also wife to Alex, who works in behavioral health and serves on several mental health, church and nonprofit boards and committees outside of CMS. Allison enjoys yoga, travel, reading historical fiction, church work, and family adventures. Nicole Lucas, Secretary Nicole is a 3rd year HFES parent of Ava, a rising 3rd grader in the dual language program, and is excited to serve on the PTA board again this coming school year. Nicole has previously served as PTA Secretary and Vice President, and looks forward to continued partnership with the new board and larger school community. Her “day job” is in nursing administration, and she is also on the Board of Directors for a local pediatric cancer non-profit organization. In addition to her little fox, Ava, Nicole is mom to two older son’s Marcus and Camden. In all of her spare time (lol) she enjoys date nights with her husband, Troy, traveling (especially to a good beach), and simple lazy weekends with her family. She joins Lorin in the painful love for the Carolina Panthers (fingers crossed for a better season ahead). |
