Below you will see the bios from our two LSGT Parent Nominees.  A school call will go out giving you the opportunity to vote.

 

Candidate’s Name: Jennifer Simpson

My name is Jennifer Simpson and I am a new parent to Alto Park Elementary. My son, Asa Simpson, started Pre-k this year. I am very familiar with the school because I am an Alto Park alumni. I graduated from Coosa High School and then attended the University of West Georgia where I graduated with a B.S. in Sociology and a minor in Mass Communications. 

I feel that it is important to have an active role in my child’s life. It is important to me and my family to be able to serve our community. My husband is an employee of Floyd County Schools and through his career I have seen the importance of the role a parent can make in the LSGT. I hope I get the opportunity to make an impact at Alto Park Elementary. Thank you and GO EAGLES!

Candidate’s Name: Brandi Waits

I am a stay at home mom to 3 kids. I have a 15 year old daughter who goes to Coosa High, a 12 year old son who goes to Coosa Middle and a 7 year old son who goes to Alto Park. 

I would be very grateful to be given the opportunity to be a part of Alto Park’s LSGT. Although I have only been on the PTO for 3 years, I have been co-president for the last 2 years. I have been very involved with the community there and would love to continue to be a part of its growth and development. All of my kids have gone to Alto Park and it will always be an important place to me. I want nothing but the best for our community and kids and that’s why I feel like I would be a great candidate.
