BROOKE BURAGLIA
VICE PRESIDENT
I’m very excited to be VP this year. This will be my 3rd year with the organization. I have two kids: a stepson, Gaetano, who is 24 and Isabella, who is 16. I currently attend college full time at Southwestern University in Georgetown to obtain my teaching degree in Secondary Education in History with a minor in Special Education. I want to teach high school. I am a youth leader at my church along with singing on our worship team. I love music and have played instruments and sang since I was young. I love to dance so you will always see me in the Parent Dance in Spring Show, so if you need support to do it come see me.
MENDY FORTIN
TREASURER
This will be my third year with the organization. I have 3 kids: Jeremy, 22, Dylan, 18, and Megan, 16. I have two dogs: Chewie and Poppy. I am originally from Virginia and I have worked at my job for 24 years. I am an avid reader. My goal is to read a book a day.
MEGAN MITCHELL
SECRETARY
My husband Adam and I have three kids, Aidan (16), Emma (16) and Aaron (14). Our boys are percussionists in the Glenn Band, so we split our band and dance duties between us. We are so excited to be able to watch all 3 of our kids on the field this year! Fun fact, my husband is the announcer for the Band and the Guardian’s halftime performance as well as for spring show. I am an elementary reading specialist in Leander ISD and when I have free time I love to read, craft, travel and go to concerts.
