Sara Hoffman - Treasurer
Greg Roy - Secretary

Briar Cook - Member at Large

Jordon Randall - Member at Large
​Emily Taylor - Member at Large

Thanks to this great team of parent volunteers who have stepped up to continue to make our school a special place. 

The Exec is the team that helps set the priorities and oversee the organization, but a reminder that all parent/caregivers with a child attending A.R. Lord are also a part of the PAC. It takes active participation (even if virtual) by our diverse families group to build our school community, support our students, teacher and staff to and enhance the education experience. This can take many forms and can be as much or as little time as you can give. Some examples are:

• Volunteer to to lead an initiative 
• Serve on a committee
• Lend your skills and help make connections to community partners
• Assist with grant applications or fundraising events
• Participate on the District wide PAC
• Donate goods, services, or funds
• Organize an event or activity
• Help with tasks such as purchasing supplies
• Help us reach all families and let them know what is going on in our school
• Spread the word about A.R. Lord PAC on social media (retweet, post on social media, Like etc)
• Bring forth your ideas and suggestions on what you want to see in our school for our students!

​A special thanks to the past Executive: Emily Sharman, Carly Roy, Deanna McFeely, Deniz Randall, Sherrie Taylor, Brittany Pifer, and Marina Glass.
