Julie is our outstanding Fundraising Chair, responsible for putting on the annual Bolt for Brookview event! She and her team work tirelessly to put on this obstacle fun run fundraiser each year, with jaw dropping results. Our PTO wouldn't be able to function at the level it does without the amazing donations brought in by this event. The next time you see Julie, please thank her for everything she has done and continues to do for Brookview!!
Fun facts about Julie . .
I have a 5th-grader and kindergartener.
When my kid(s) started at Brookview, I wish I knew . . . how many opportunities they would have to develop, build self-confidence and become leaders in their community. To see their progress year over year is just amazing!! All of our teachers and staff at Brookview are top notch and truly care about students learning/experiences/leadership but also their well being.
One thing I wish people knew about PTO at Brookview is that . . . our PTO is not the stigma PTO’s normally have—we have fun, share / learn ideas from others, laugh and learn more about the education of our children.
The best things about volunteering at Brookview are . . . the wonderful parents I work with quickly became close friends, as well as the excitement and pure joy on the kids faces and helping to bring money into the school for technology, guided reading, diversity experiences and so very much more.
My first or favorite memory of my own elementary school experience is . . . the Letter People.
I never have time to . . . read.
I have an irrational fear of . . . snakes.
My day is better when . . . I am spending quality time with my girls—cooking, jumping on the trampoline, playing outside or working on projects together. Their smiles, giggles, hugs and snuggles bring me so much love and happiness.
People would be surprised to know that I can . . . fix a lot of things around the house on my own. My Dad owned a hardware store when I was growing up so I was taught to tackle every problem and never give up until it is fixed (even if that requires asking a question, but now in the glorified days of technology there is a You Tube video for everything!).
If money weren’t an issue, the hobby I would take up would be . . . Party Planning / Catering.
One more thing I want to do as a family before summer break ends is . . . Go on a Disney Cruise to the Bahamas!!
