Board

PTSA

My name is Jessica McAllister! I am so excited to be a part of our PTSA board. I am not
only a parent of 2 Stetson Hills kiddos but also a 7th grade teacher at our fantastic school
for the last 9 years. As a family, we love to attend ASU football games and are
amusement park enthusiasts! Our family vacations typically include a trip to Knott's Berry
Farm!

  • Jessica McAlister
  • Kristi Vasquez

Hi! I am Kristi and I am so excited to be the 24/25 Stetson Hills PTSA President! I am a
second-generation Arizona native and spent the first half of my life on a cotton farm in Casa
Grande, Arizona but came to the valley for high school and attended Apollo High School in
Glendale. I've been married to my amazing husband James for 12 years now and we have
two kids at Stetson. We stay busy with kids' sports most weekends but when we aren’t on a
soccer or football field I like to run, hike, and spend time with my horse Tater.

Hi! I'm Jennifer and I am thrilled to work on the 24/25 Board as the VP of Membership.
I was born and raised in Phoenix and a proud ASU alum! My day job is VP of People
and Culture for an advertising agency and I sit on the state council for AZSHRM. I have
been married to my incredible husband for 19 years and our boys are both at Stetson
Hills. We stay super busy with sports, Cub Scouts, and church, but when we can get
away, you can find us camping in the pines of Happy Jack.

  • Jenn Bohnsack

Hi I’m Brittney Dick. I’m so excited to get this opportunity to create fun and engaging
experiences for the Stetson Hills School community! As the PTSA events planner and
mother of 2, I get to see firsthand the joy these events bring to students, families, and
staff. It's incredibly rewarding to bring people together and foster a strong sense of
school spirit.

  • Brittney Dick

Hi! I'm Carissa and am very excited to be serving on the 2024-2025 Stetson Hills PTSA
board as Vice President of Fundraising! I was born and raised in Arizona and fun fact I went
to Sandra Day O'Connor High School. My husband Austin and I have one amazing kiddo
who attends Stetson Hills. Our son plays sports year round so pending his schedule you
can find us at the lake or up north as much as we can! I love hiking, paddle boarding and
am a total bookworm as well.

  • Carissa Benda

Hi! I’m Sabrina and I am so excited to be a part of the 24-25 PTSA board as your Treasurer.

I was born and raised here in Arizona and I have a son who attends Stetson Hills. We are a
big Disney household, but we also love spending time outdoors, paddle boarding,
exploring museums, and spending time with family. I’m looking forward to meeting and
working with so many of you this year to make this an awesome year for our Stallions!

Wow, can you believe how fast October has flown by? The holiday season is just around the corner! We had such a wonderful time at Grandparents Night on October 25th. It was heartwarming to see our Stallions having a blast with their grandparents! Exciting news: our APEX Leadership Fundraiser was a huge success, raising over $45,000! The PTSA has decided to use some of that money for a fantastic new math and ELA program called IXL. We're also looking to spruce up some of the tables and benches around the school. We’re gearing up for our next PTSA meeting on November 12th, where we’ll chat about even more ways to use these funds. We’d love to hear your ideas, so come join us! Your input is always appreciated!
