 I have been a PTA Member for 4 years. My girls are Sophie (4th) and Emma (2nd), Charlotte can't wait to be a Bulldog but is only 3. As a teacher I have spent time on many different school campus' and I am so grateful for the wonderful community at BV! My girls are so fortunate experiencing an enriching education with some of the best teachers who care for them, nurture them, and help them become better people. I am always enjoying hiking in the hills near by or adventuring to new places with my family. I love my garden and its sanctuary, and grow anything from veggies to hopefully some pretty flowers. I look forward to serving on the PTA board and helping grow our BV community. 

Cari DuBois-Wright

Co-President

Hello, My name is Cari DuBois-Wright.  I have been a PTA member for the past 5 years.  My son Jaxon is going into the 3rd grade.  I enjoy participating in the PTA because it helps me stay in the know, and provides the opportunity to help contribute to my son’s overall experience.  I enjoy volunteering and impacting our students across campus.  During the day I work full-time at UC Davis fundraising for student support, research, and emergency funds. Education and experiential learning opportunities are so important.  I am looking forward to supporting our President Delise, meeting you, and getting to know our BV community during the upcoming year.  Go Bulldogs!

2022 is my first year of BV's PTA, and I am excited to learn about and serve the community. I have two students at BV, Ellie (4th grade) and Matilda (1st grade).
We love that BV is our neighborhood school and the smiling faces we see on campus are the same ones we see when at the grocery store, playing soccer, or walking the dog.
When I am not at a PTA meeting I am reading, listening to a podcast, hiking with my family and our dog, hoping to pet a horse, and playing with my kids.

This is my second year as a PTA member.

Last year was our first year at BV for Jackson (3^rd Grade).

Amara is 3 and in preschool.

The reason I love BV is our wonderfully inclusive school community and our very involved families.

If I'm not at a PTA meeting then I am with the Cub Scouts, volunteering in the classroom, hiking with family, or taking the kids for swim, soccer, or other activities.

I love Buena Vista because of the community, the friends I have made and the incredible teachers that are so supportive of our children.

5th year as a PTA member, second year on the board.

Father to Aaron (4th grade)

The reason I love BV is... the effort the community and staff makes. Even through a challenging year BV has made best of it to provide a quality education and experience for our children.

If I'm not at a PTA meeting then I am... juggling the rest of life: work, martial arts, volunteering for cub scouts, camping, spending time with family, and my personal favorite activity of white water rafting.
