Ridgeline Academy PTO

Hi! I'm Melissa, and I'm honored to serve as your Ridgeline Academy PTO President. I'm a mom of two boys at Ridgeline, one in 4th grade and the other in 1st. This marks our third year as part of the Ridgeline family. I've always made it a priority to be an active PTO member, including at our previous school, and I can honestly say that the move to Ridgeline has been the best decision we've made for our family!

As PTO President, I help lead and coordinate many of the events that make Ridgeline such a special community, including the Halloween Carnival, the Father-Daughter Dance, and Teacher Appreciation Week, among many others throughout the year. It's a joy to bring our students, families, and staff together and to celebrate the people who make our school so wonderful.

​

Professionally, I'm a Pediatric Occupational Therapist holding my AOTA Specialty Certification in Feeding, Eating, and Swallowing (SCFES) as well as my SOS Approach to Feeding certification. I work in early intervention and also run my own private practice, where I get to support children and their families every day.
Outside of work, I love all things creative and have a real soft spot for hosting events and bringing friends and family together. I'm excited to pour into our school community this year!

Hippity-hop, come say hello—
I'm the PTO VP you'll want to know!
Our newest librarian, an EP too,
Helping little learners discover something new.
A school chameleon through and through,
If there's a need, I'll hop right to!
From crafts and books to events with cheer,
I'm happiest helping throughout the year.
When the music starts, my family's the DJ crew,
Keeping school celebrations hopping for you!
Outside of school, I balance finance and administration with pride,
Then head home where husband, one son, a bonus daughter, five cats, and three dogs keep life on a joyful ride.
Where kindness grows, great things bloom—
So hop on in... there's always room!

Let's create something special.  

Hi, I'm Alexis! My daughter has attended Ridgeline since kindergarten. My family and I love our staff and frequently spoil them to show our appreciation. As a regular volunteer it only made sense to extend that appreciation more by walking out the PTO mission as a Board Member in 2025. I'm excited to be here!

Hi, I'm Jennifer! My daughter has been a student at Ridgeline Academy since kindergarten and I was an active PTO member & volunteer prior to serving on the PTO Board effective 2025. I fully believe in the PTO's mission because I've seen the positive benefits it yields for students, staff, and the RA family community at both campuses through the many things PTO helps fund.

​​

It's a privilege to be part of that difference.

​

If you have a heart for serving and are considering becoming a member, know that participating in PTO is about a lot of people doing a little bit and I encourage you to join.

See you around campus!

I am a nurse of 17 years and the owner of Pretty & Posh Injections, PLLC. As Director of Community Engagement for the PTO, I help supports events by planning, fundraising, and volunteer coordination & communications. My role supports the connective work that keeps a school community running.
She bring the same thing to this role that she's brought to nursing for nearly two decades: steady follow-through, honest communication, and a genuine investment in the people around her. Whether it's planning an event, rallying volunteers, or solving a problem on the fly, she's practical, present, and easy to work with.
I'm grateful for the chance to serve and ready to get to work.
